• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Hitch Removal

So I bought a 36mm socket today so I can align my belt to keep it from rubbing the flange.
Is it easy to remove the BRP hitch to access the axle nut?
Thanks,

Very easy, takes about 15 minutes. That's with a break.

You just need a 3/4' wrench and a 3/4" socket to remove the shaft that goes through the rear axle. A pair of needle nose pliers to remove the cotter pin holding the nut in place (to remove the shaft).
 
Easy

Remove cotter pin. Remove castilated nut. Remove hitch axle ( bolt). Take a rubber mallet, beat the hitch ball to the rear. Hitch comes off with a few blows.
 
Thanks everyone, this group is awesome!

I forgot to mention, when you're sliding off the hitch, be sure to move the brake line (on right side) out of the way. You only have to move it out an inch to clear so the hitch can slide off.
