Custom Add ons for Grey Mitsubishi Tractor

Nice work. That tractor looks like its new.

Thanks very much, no the tractor was remanufactured like a year before I got it, I purchasedit in 2005. I got a great deal on it, this guy I know purchased like 8 of these tractors and couldnt sell them as quick as he thought, caught him at the right time, the tractor only had 600 hours on it, I purchased the tractor and a 5' boxblade for $3800.00

Nice..bet if you park tractor by the road w/for sale you'll get your money back plus..do I see box blade in back ground.

Yes sir, 5' boxblade, I think the horsepower rating on these little tractors are off, it has really shocked me, I have learn though as long as you keep them weighted down, it will perform, thanks for the compliments everyone.

A lot of grey market tractors measure their HP at the PTO, not the engine. So - your engine may actually be closer to 24 HP.

Looking good! I see you have found a place for a tool box it has been rather difficult to find a good place to mount one on any of our cut tractors,
I would be afraid if i mounted one on my yanmar where you have on the mitz the lift would push adjustable link into the toolbox,

Yes it is a little close to the toplink, so I used 1 1/2" uni-strut to get an inch or so more of clearance. My next project is a ROPS, mirrors or rear camera.

Ah! a rear camera? will you be adding a monitor to the dash? or simply to record things you are doing?............ I am in the middle of fabricating a ROPS myself, actually I had drawn out plans to build one from scratch but have decided not to, instead I have got a ROPS from a fork lift with a canopy built onto it and going to modify to fit my Yanmar, I have it all laid out on my welding table ready to weld up, I've just been waiting for the holiday to settle down, probably work on it today,
it looks like you are quite handy at fabricating things yourself,
I'm sure Your ROPS will work out just fine, But be sure you use a good mounting location and as I was told when mentioning building My own ROPS
be sure to use a seat belt with the ROPS,

 

[dirtguy75]

Yes a monitor will be mounted off to the left-side, I am going to fiberglass a pod for the monitor, and I have to come up with a weather proof cover, also I am going to fab up a small bushguard to protect the pod from limbs when bushhogging around trees, fired up the bushhog today, the "A" frame I built is a beast, no play in the mower, I love it, also there is no give so when the mower starts to get in a bind you can feel it and back off before you get too jammed, I think I am going to add some runners all the way down both sides of the cutter. Heres some before and after pics, man I tell you I cut down small trees and all, Mitsubishi has me sold, If I can find me a 50 hp or so with cab in a Mitsubishi I would buy it.

The satellite dish mounted up on the tractor is awesome. Now, when you get the monitor hooked up you'll be able to access TBN on the fly!

Oh, BTW, nice work on all the mods!

To mount you monitor look to the marine industry. They make pre made pods with water tight covers. They are used for fish finders, chart plotters, and GPS.

Good call.... Most marine equipment is designed to handle vibration too.
