Wow, that is beautiful and you are a fortunate man. You could use a second set of rear weights and a front-end "starter" weight to hold it down. I have a 5520 no cab and needed the above added weight, especcially the rear ones.
Congratulations and have fun--which includes more photos.

I like the FEL lights. I'm thinking about adding those to my tractor. Let us know how they work! That is a very nice tractor. You'll find a million and one uses for the grapple too. Time to put her to work!

Real nice! You got about eveything you should need. Those lights are very nice as well. I have seen them some other tractors, but they are attached to the tractor, not the loader. They look like they will really light things up as well. Let us know how that cab works out for you, comfort, etc. Some more pictures would be nice as well. Enjoy!

I've put about 8 hours on the new 5425 and have gone through about 15 gallons of Hydo fluid.
In a way it was my fault in that when I found one coupling leaking, I should have checked them all.
Other than that, so far so good. I've been so busy with the grapple bucket and the bush hog, I have yet to try out the finish mower or the tiller!
More photos on the way!
