BX2380 Lift Arm

[EstonP]

I backed in to a huge stump and bent one of my lower 3point lift arms. 2 questions- 1. Anyone know somewhere to get a replacement besides the dealer? 2. Anyone ever changed one on BX2380? All other tractors I致e had they had a lynch pin on the tractor end. This one seems like a rod running through it.

Thanks in advance for the input.

Easy to take off. Look for BX25 3point lift arms on YouTube. The kit is additional on backhoe models. They go on/come off the same way. A local shop should be able to straighten it, or it’s a good excuse to buy a press at Harbor a Freight and have the tool in inventory.

Neighbor did the same, we put it in a vice, heated w/ an acetylene torch and used a large pipe to bend it back. Been fine for years now.
