I was thinking the same thing for a tool box but gonna mount it on the left side ROPS support with U-bolts.

I had hooks welded to the buckets

Got a boom pole from TSC In the background you can see the counter weight I built out of a blue barrel. I left it 10" higher than the concrete to hold my chains, log tong, etc. Weighs about 650 lbs.

Nice Buggs67! Aren't tractors fun? Could you look at my post under hydraulics to see the video about the hoses for the loader.Had the dealer add hooks at no charge.

So what time should we all be over for the egg nog in front of the warm fireplace? :thumbsup:

I went with the bolt on hooks from Kens bolt on grab hooks. Top notch stuff and they shipped quick.



I built a trailer hitch for the 3 point using an old hitch i had. Got the idea from another thread here. It's great for wheeling the splitter around or the small trailer of rounds and splits.



Then i added another receiver to it for a trailer hitch carry all. For now I'm just using bungee cords to hold my saw, gas, oil, and chainsaw tool box. But I'm thinking I'm going to fab up some sides and compartments for it.



I also added 3 27 watt leds to the rops. Two forward facing and one rear facing with front and rear on opposite switches. I'm looking to add a toolbox and a chain holder tube as well but haven't got to it yet.

I love seeing repurpose ingenuity.

I got the tool box mounted. I used some light 1" square tubing that i had lying around the garage to mount it. And got the box on clearance from TSC. Figured i don't get on or off on the right side anyhow so I'm giving it a try there







I also threw together a chain holder tube. Didn't have the guts to drill into the loader bracket quite yet so i used the existing mounting holes for the hydraulic bracket and welded some angle together to mount it. Then used some strapping around the loader mount and screwed it to the PVC. We'll see how it holds up.

Did you reverse the 4 lower hoses for the loader? The manual shows them another way.I like yours, it gets the hoses up out of harms way. Do you think I would loose much fluid if I changed mine around?

No i didn't, that's how it came from the dealer. I haven't even disconnected the quick connects or removed the loader yet. (haven't had a reason to) i did read your other thread about the hoses and I'm at a loss. I almost wonder if it isn't just a matter of what tech does the assembly at the dealers and how they perceive the instructions. Kind of like the turn signal wires on that one in the video. As for flipping the hoses, I'd have to look closer at the fittings to see if it would just be a quick flip or a lot tinkering. But i can't imagine there would be much fluid loss. Shouldn't be more than gravity flow with them disconnected.
