Where did you get your spacers from? Make / stock number / sku? If I understand correctly, the 1.5" is the way to go. The 2 inch spacers will interfere with a belly mower (which, I have a 60" unit).
I don't think the 2" spacers will interfere with a 60" belly mower. But measure to double check. I just ordered 2" from Bro-Tek and I have a BX2380 60" belly mower with turf tires.
Congrats on the purchase, you gonna love it! Spacers are cheap way to to provide a wider stance on the rear axle better stability with the tractor on hills.
@@wallyborni4411 I think if you do run snow chains it will help having spacers to prevent slap of the chains against the framework of the tractor being the wheels are so close to the frame. I would NOT even recommend snow chains. I ran the tractor doing snow removal and it works amazing with four-wheel-drive+diff lock sometimes.
wheel spacers will make your tractors ride feel much more stable . I put 2 inch spacers on my green sub compact tractor and It feels a lot more stable. you should've used lock tight on the mounting bolts and I would recommend you check the torque on the mounting bolts for the spacers at least every year . we do ours every 6 months only found 1 or 2 that needed re-torqued
I did notice a difference. I normally don’t like spacers on vehicles, as it can wear out certain parts faster. On a tractor is different as it’s not high speed. I will keep an eye on torque specs. Thanks
Ignoring lug nut torque recommendations can rip threads to shreds. Whatever it is for this tractor, it's probably different than how hard an impact wrench is capable putting them on

Great video chief, appreciate it. I need spacers for my BX2680
Nice vid good job!
Thanks
Weren’t you supposed to remove the 2 studs and replace with bolts? On a B series they do. Also do you have a deck?
What size garage do you have? I also have tacoma and b series tractor, getting ideas for a build.
Getting my BX23S delivered in a couple of weeks. Seems like a great idea wheel spacers for stability but would this void my warranty? Thanks mate...
It does not void the warranty. Kubota actually offers it as an option
I’m new here as a BX owner, could u please explain why I need the wheel spacers for?
Thanks

Isn’t related to a snow chains right?

I understand, I do lower the hit rate setting
