FEL is HERE!

[MrP]

Well, not here. I'm stuck a work and my wife just called. The tractor has been delivered and "the FEL looks great" (her words).

I can't leave early today because I have an all afternoon meeting with my Boss... /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif

I'll post some pics tomorrow.

Congrads.... with that tractor a FEL will make it a workhorse. Cant wait to see your pictures.

I am still planning to post pictures, but I am currently over whelmed with wedding plans. how about a B2410 as a wedding present to myself .

Sorry it took so long to get the pics. I just got the dang blasted camera to work again.

My Bucket Hooks.

A couple of points:
1) your new FEL appears to have been used. I know this because the bucket is dirty, you'd better send it back and have them deliver one that has not been used. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

2) you mounted the bucket hooks inboard on the bucket. Is that going to bend the bucket if you chain up a big load? The guy that but mine on attached them at the edges to keep from bending the bucket and when he put the one on in the center, he put a piece of angle under it to give it a good base to mount to. What do you think?

Very, very nice. I am sure you'll find more use out of that sweet machine now.
If you have some time, you can come on down to my neck of the woods and I'll put you to work...../w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

That looks like a tractor now.... But you also need the tooth bar. tell Jeremy that should be your bonus for hooking me up with him.

Enjoy it all..... BTW, I need to get a digital camera or borrow my buddies so I can also post some pictures. But with the help of my B2410, we are really making progress... Now my wife and I can see our friendly fox pack out hunting in our back yard.

Jazz,

I do have a toothbar and bucket forks as well. I remove the tooth bar for turning the manure pile. I did too much damage to the ground around the pile with the teeth. Glad to hear that your 2410 is treating you well. I look forward to seeing the pictures.

As far as the bucket hooks are concerned, they were added by the dealer at no charge. He put them in line with the lifting arms for strength. They seem to know what their doing, so I expect to have little trouble.
