finally stated to install the FEL, I had to disconnect the trailer then wedge the tractor to get the grapple to reach the front of the tractor, but it worked. Seems like I have to rework all of the skid plates that Payeur installed, because they interfered with the front and mid mounts. As you can see in the picture I will have rework for the FOPs. With out all the rework the intallation has been easy so far, hydraulics tomorrow.

I was really curious how easy it would be to get the FEL to fit with that full cage and the skid plate. Cutting torch and welder can make anything fit though. Thats kinda cheating, using your trailer boom to do your heavy lifting. I like it. Looks like you have some more fabbing to do to re-attach the front of the cage.

Did you get a Quick-Attach plate with it? Makes it easy to remove the bucket for getting into tight places and heavy lifting.
