Nice machine!
Nice tractor but way too clean. And you haven't even bent your bucket level indicator yet.
I notice you still have the stock topping lift. Think about getting a hydraulic version. Makes hook ups and especially control of 3PT implements much easier. You already have at least one set of remotes. I think MtnViewRanch sells a nice kit or you could get one from your dealer.
Excuse my ignorance but what is a topping lift? Maybe I know it as something else!
Jargon for the connector link between the rear of your tractor and the top of the 3PT hitch on implements. Standard version is a screw type which requires getting off the tractor and twisting to lengthen or shorten. Hydraulic version is controlled from the seat with the rear remote lever. Photo shows blue colored hydraulic version on DK40.Quote:

So for $310 your life can be even easier. ;)
