What have you done to your Branson today?

Yes it does. It is a '76 Rokon RTII Automatic. (The same Rokon that makes the 2wd bikes). Has a 360cc Sachs snowmobile engine and a variable pulley snowmobile transmission. It was quite the competitive offroad racing bike back in it's day in long distance endurance events. I have owned it since new. Still runs fine. If it wasn't so loud I would still be riding it more.

I think the 4720H and 4720CH are quite different in regards to available area on the fender. Attached are the pictures of how I finally mounted the ammo (tool) box. Was quite a trick to find a place that wouldn't interfere with the rear window opening, didn't hang out to where it would get knocked off, and I could remove it easily (too high to easily get inside where it is mounted). Also I included pics of my clevis mount and hooks I put on the bucket. Not the best welding job in the world, but they will hold.

Nice job and thanks for the pics.

Now all you need is a nice hammer hook.

What did I do to my Branson today....
To make a long story short I forgot to lock my SSQA fork lift attachment and it fell off at full height and landed on my hood.
Luckily I was able to get the hood unlatched still . So today work is to see if I can get it close to what it used to and hopefully the wife doesn't notice.

Ouch!!! If I did that to mine I wouldn't have to worry about the wife. Got rid of her 14 years ago but I would be pissed at myself for sure.

At least it's something that came be straightened vs the other Plastic hoods not going to name names jd Kubota, and a bunch of others.

Fixed big hole in a front tire with a 1/4" carriage bolt and some flat washers. For 6-ply tires, they don't seem to be very heavy duty or tough at all.

You must not be running Tiron Korean OEM tires. I just took off a pair of 6 ply R4s and they can hold their shape down to less than 5 psig installed on the tractor supporting it's rear weight. My gauge quit at 5 and I was still bleeding. Thought I'd be smart and put on a set of Titan 4 ply turfs. Not much improvement. I'm on the other end of the spectrum. I'm looking for a soft ride and just about to give it up after puking about $1.5k on tires, air seat, wheel weights and fluid. Running 16.5 rims with 6x6 bolt pattern and 4wd doesn't leave you many options.

I wish! Mine are Carlisles (Traction Masters?) on Titan 15x7 rims.

My rears are Titans and all this sharp-edged rock in Texas chews 'em pretty bad.

Added new pallet forks to my growing collection of attachments. Purchased from Titan Attachments. They appear to be very well made. Their prices include shipping. The main frame includes the three receptacles for hay spears which they also sell. They offer different sizes and styles of pallet forks and other types of implements as well. Their pricing is very competiveIMG_0870.JPGIMG_0872.JPGIMG_0873.JPGIMG_0874.JPGIMG_0875.JPGIMG_0876.JPG. Worth checking out. I also purchased their "84 inch fork extenions which slip on and off easily and stay secure.

Nice looking forks.

Mine have come in real handy... I'd love to have a grapple some day but in the meantime, the forks have worked well for logs, brush piles, poles, etc... not just palettes.

The forks also make good jib booms for rigging smaller loads.
