That's perfect! Never would I have thought of mounting it there! Perfect location, I believe. I'll look at my layout when I get home in a bit! Did you use some type of gasket between the Ram base and the tractor housing?
Thanks J Wal!
No gasket. It’s just the base straight on the plastic. I held it in the general location I wanted it and used a marker to trace half of the mounting base. That way I could get on the side of the tractor, line the tracing up with the mount base and drill the holes.
I do feel the metal tabs I used on the back of the top and bottom bolts will go a long way to prevent the mount from pulling the bolts through the plastic.
I also used blue lock tight on the bolts/ nuts to prevent loosening from vibration.
I am really happy with the low profile to the hood yet easy to see and access. Should be fairly safe from being hit by limbs or anything like that.
