HST Wine, Not any more

I found this in the shed ( previous owner left it .... )
I'm thinking of drilling through both bases , and injecting
from one end to the other , with no holes in the ROP frame.
What do you think ?

With that foam, maybe the tractor can float now also :laughing:

Well it does have the Float feature on the FEL, HmmmmMaybe the loader arms are foam filled. I think I'll check in the morning.

But another thought just occurred to me, If I drilled and tapped a hole for a tire valve in each loader arm and then filled them with Helium, would that significantly increase the lifting capacity of the loader, and if so by how much EXACTLY?

Now your on to something ... If I see a tractor floating overhead ... I'll know you used to much!!!

Sure why not? Foams foam right unless it comes out of a Fosters can, then it's well something else.:laughing::drink:

Foam-fill has now gone viral :shocked:

I was also thinking now that its foam filled it won't hurt so bad when you bump your head on it....

Now that's funny!!! I don't care who you are!!!:laughing::laughing:

I dont think you really need to drill holes. When I first got my tractor, I took the top half off and if my memory serves me right, I think the rops is open from top. you should be able to put it in from there. you might want to get a stiff tube that will snake all the way to bottom so its easier to fill.

******-- now this is getting me to think I need to do this too....

In the spirit of this forum ... sure the OP does the job and its successfull ... then your memory kicks in ... so your try'n to get the patten?

AND what stiff tube that will "snake" all the way to the bottom are you refering to?
