All your mods look sharp =) I'm gonna' follow your lead w/ the lights, Chris. I'll pro'lly mount 1 forward and 1 aft tho', as my ROPS doesn't drop.

Chris-Thanks for the info. My ROP doesn't fold so I can't mount exactly like yours. Thought about attaching to fender above rear light.

Looks Great, BTW, what size dirt scoop are you using?

Ridge runner, I am thinking of upgrading my lights in the front of the Tractor. i have seen others do that by changing the bulbs, I know that there is a limitation to what can be done, but I hear you can get them quite bright, by going to a car bulb.

I added lights to my 7500. Brighter wasn't the answer. The factroy headlights lack spread. I bought two of these lights (Blaser, I think) at TSC and mounted them so they angled out and slightly down. Even without the factory lights turned on I have just about 180° of light out in front..................chim

30" KK dirt scoop - payed $260 + tax @ TSC.
Tried some Slip Plate on it which is graphite paint. Pretty good stuff, but could be a little more durable.

Nuru, what make/model machine are you on?

Good Looking, is it reversable?

a JD 4100, HST. I am looking at a dirt scoop instead of a loader (cannot justify).

Chris,

I like your seat, might do this on my B21 when it needs it (a few years). Just another comment on the SMV - Gemplers has the stick on type that would fit right on the back of your new seat quite nicely and it would be out of the way.

Nice job on all the mods esp liked your recent laser "draft control" as well. Nice work..
