[CDN Farm Boy]

Nice work Farm Boy, the switches look factory. Nice placement.

Thanks, that was the intention. Took some work to find the right ones.

I thought of mounting my lights low like yours, my concerns

I wear glasses, any glare/reflections with lights at eye level behind your head?

When turning to look rearward don't they shine in your eyes?

I see you have a little bit of shielding ,was that enough?

I also wear glasses. The shielding was needed for two reasons.

When I first mounted the lights, I didn't have the shielding and couldn't even use the front light. It would reflect off my glasses while driving forward and obviously blind me when I turned to look backwards as I was looking straight into it. I knew I'd need the shield before I mounted them but needed them mounted to figure out the size of the shield. It's about 4" wide and covers from about the 10 o'clock position to the 4 o'clock position, held on with a stainless hose clamp. Another 1/2" of coverage would have been good but works well enough as is. I made it thru all last winter's snow removal with it like this. I'll probably play with it a bit when I get around to mounting the other pair of lights on the other ROPS post.

With the hyd valve also now mounted, I can raise the valve another 1.5 - 2" which I plan to do

All you guys do some nice work :thumbsup:
Mine is a little rougher.

Your L2800 is similar to my L3010. The flat rear fenders make it easy to add a big (or small) tool box. I also added a grapple with the grapple control lever beside the loader lever.

Very nice, I like the extra teeth on the sides of the bucket. and the second lever looks factory. That tractor is ready for WW III

Use will be bush hogging and land clean up. Maybe a little on the small side of tractor size for now. Working to clean underbrush on 20 of 40 acres
