The door looks great! Do you know where you are going to tap into for the oil and trans temp?

Thanks, 6060!! nah then you would have to Mod all over

When I did the 4240 and let that go for the 5740 the 4240 had 200 hours on it. The 5740 got 135 :shocked: that 6060 is singing to me.

Not yet, haven looked around under there, but you can drill and tap into the drain plug if the sender is small enough

These tractors probably run 10,000 hrs or more you have how many? one hundred thirty five thats a little more then 3- 40hr work weeks. You spent more time on the mods then use.
I guess this falls into the want category we talked about.
I tried to find it, but someone here on TBN gave me some good advice and I didn't take it. He said I had spring fever and to forget about it , It will pass.

If I bought a 6060 I'd have to hide it because the wife would kill me and I'm not kidding :laughing:
At 135 hours on a machine I'm not in the market for a new one plus I may not be doing snow clearing commercially anymore so this 5740 will be a keeper. As for the 6060. Its nice. Emissions system is a deterrent and I'm not found of the can cover. I think the cab cover on the grands look much nicer but that's just my opinion which don't account for much but that 6060 got some cool features the 40 series don't have.

:O why is that

Been doing it for almost 25 years now. Tied down during the winter months because of it. Contract is up so I'm not submitting a bid. Would like to have the freedom to visit our sons who live out of province especially during the holiday season.
