BX with RCK54D-26BX-1 mower transport width

[ChoreFanatic]

Wondering if this will fit easily into a 5 ft wide dump trailer.

I know 54 inch cut.
Manual says overall width = 66.5, but I assume that is with discharge cover down.

What is overall (outer) width with discharge cover opened up as much as possible?

Thanks!

My MMM is 60" is 75". With the discharge cover up, it is 64"

A 54" is 67 inches, minus the flap of 11 inches, you get 56" give or take.

It will fit, but it will be close.

I'd be more concerned with how much weight the dump trailer can hold. Sounds like a small dump trailer.

^^ what he said. bare weight of bx1880 is 1400 lbs. The deck adds a couple hundred, grass catcher couple hundred if you have it. Ballasted tires adds 200 more or so.

I have a 5' wide trailer, my BX with the 54" just fits in if you lift the discharge flap.
