Yanmar 2210, and 2, 425 John deere lawn tractors
I started this build a couple of months ago. Just working on it in my free time and when I find free metal to fabricate with. I have only got the main attaching frame to the tractor and part of the two towers completed. I will be starting on the diagnal supports to the front bumper tonight. The only thing I have paid for so far is the 4 tower pins about 20 dollars total. I don't have a plan. Just have looked at a lot of pics online mostly at tractorhouse.com pritty neat site. will post more pics as I go. I am thinking of going with a straight boom instead of the ones like you see on the more modern tractors today that have almost a 90 degree angle in them. hope yall like.

Looks good so far, are you going to take the loader frame through to the back axles?
Have built things the way you are doing this, without a plan, mostly worked out OK.

I like.

Keep us posted on progress. For some reason it makes these projects a whole lot more fun to follow when I know that cheap or free is the goal.
