favorite accessory

[WiJC]

thru advice from other tbners, i have added accessories to my tractor such as a toothbar. all of my add-ons so far have been really nice and handy.

BUT.....

this weekend i put on one of them roller ball thing-a-ma-jiggers on my steering wheel. (forget the name of it)

that is the coolest thing since sliced bread! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

i think all thats left to add is a cupholder /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

anyone else add a cheap/dumb add-on that ended up being really nice?

Spinner knob, suicide knob, whatever you want to call it. I sure makes mowing a lot easier with all the turning. You did get an orange one didn't you? I had to find a green one before I put mine on. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

sure did! i figured if it wasnt orange, then it wouldnt match! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

(ok, maybe that was the wife that thought that)

The suicide knob are nice, but watch your wrist when you get bouncing in the field and the wheels decide to go one way when your hand go another.

John, You named the most important accessory second ! A swivel cup holder for my MT Dew or beverage of your choice.
MY IH steers with one finger, no suicide knob needed here.

Seems to me if you're a IH owner you would drink Coke. Mt Dew should be for Deere drivers, shouldn't it?

Mine also steers easily with one finger and that is the way I spun the wheel on corners for the first 3 years. Then I decided to try a knob. I would not go back. With PS the steering wheel does not try to kick back on rough ground.

Where might one find an orange spinner? I'v been unable to find one locally for over a year.

I got mine at Tractor Supply. They had green, orange, red, & black if I remember correctly.
