To be honest, NO..... I have always seen dimensions listed as "length X width X height".. (2"x4"x8' or 6"x6"x8', etc.)That is what threw me and I thought that it would be worth the question for clarification for all that read this that went to the same school that I did. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Well heck Junkman, if at 18" X 18" X 30" high it wouldn't fit, you could just turn it upside down...or wrong side up...or whatever.

Or you could put the tractor up on jack stands to get underneath it, or he could have a 4 post vehicle lift. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Junk, here I stand beside myself corrected,
the container measures 24long x18wide x12high,
it slips right under the BH90 subframe and allows about 5" for hands and tools to get at the engine and tranny plugs. The pics are mediocre 'cause the camera was a gift.

Thanks for the suggestions! I did find several models on the Northern Tool website but really did not want to spend that much. I'm going to try the storage bin idea. That has to be a very cost efficient solution.

I think that I will give that container consideration. I just hope that the wife doesn't miss it when it comes time to use it again. This discussion reminds me of a similar one a year and a half ago discussing a turkey roaster pan.. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Shhhh. The Turkey Roaster was a great idea. Unfortunately, my wonderful /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif wife hasn't quite gotten over that yet...nor over me using the pressure cooker. I just figured heck, if she's not going to use it, I will! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I asked the Mrs. "how do I use the pressure cooker?"
and got a one word reply, "DON'T!"

Lowes/Home Depot have black poly tubs (rectangular) for mixing mortar. Less than $20 and they are sturdy, and the ends are sloped.
Never thought of the plastic bag trick...I just leave things oily and dirty so the Mrs. doesn't "borrow" them.
