BXpanded Under Armor
Have you ever looked at the underside of your tractor? There’s a bunch of really expensive, really exposed guts just hangin’ out there! There’s filters and wires and pumps and a plastic fan that alone could set you back $800 bucks if you pick up just one little twig. Even the Knights of old didn’t head off into battle without their armor. Your tractor shouldn’t either!
The BXpanded Under Armor skid plate protects the soft spots you can’t even see from damage you might not even recognize until it gets really serious.
The easily installed Under Armor covers those soft spots like the hydraulic filter, fuel pump, fuel filter and most of the exposed wiring with an eighth of an inch of steel. Just as important, it protects that fragile plastic fan that provides ALL the cooling for that high dollar transmission/ transaxle. A single small stick can de-blade that plastic fan. While the replacement fan is inexpensive (less than $20), the replacement labor can cost hundreds as the installation of the new fan is a major undertaking.
We designed the Under Armor to install in seconds when the mid-mount mower is removed. No drilling or modifications to your tractor are required. The initial install consists of about 5 minutes work with a couple of wrenches. After that, subsequent installations can be done in about 30 seconds with absolutely no tools.
The Under Armor incorporates carefully designed vents to allow airflow while preventing sticks from reaching the fan. It’s manufactured from 1/8 inch thick steel and finished with a tough Hammered Finish silver.
We can’t protect you from all the world’s slings and arrows, but we sure can improve your odds!
Be safe out there with BXpanded Under Armor!
