Belly Pan or Skid Plate Kit Manufacturer

[firtol88]

John Deere doesn't seem to have any plans to provide a Belly Pan or Skid Plate Kit for the 3000 series tractors. My guess is that one of the attachment manufactures will/does but I haven't had any luck in finding which one.

Can you think of any manufacturers who make Belly Pan or Skid Plate Kits for tractors (For deere or any other make)????

TIA for any help!

If you search on skid plates, there are some guys that have made them for their Kubota's, since they have tender stuff exposed if the MMM is off.

For the Bota's guys have utilized the front MMM mount (ahead of the front axle) and the lift points on the MMM. Simple plates.

One man posted that he used an eye bolt to hold it, and it poked a hole in his tractor when he bottomed out on something.

Best wishes,

Thanks but I am hoping for something proven for this instead of afro engineering my own. I don't want a repeat of the eye bolt.

This company manufactures some kits but they don't currently have any plans to furnish one for the 3000 series Deeres. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Anyone knew of other similar companies?

ADDINGTON EQUIPMENT says they plan to offer a full belly pan for the 3000 series.

If you are interested let them know and they will have it available sooner rather than later... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
