Good ideas you have there! I need to add some hooks to my bucket aswell for lifting and hauling/transport on the trailer.

Also I wonder how the wheel spacers will hold up? Will it cause any extra stress or should the tractor handle any extra stress if there is?

After speaking with the mechanics at my dealer, they say no harm to the axles / bearings with spacers 2" and under. At 3", starts to add additional load. I got the spacers off ebay, The 5x4.5 spacers are the correct bolt patterns, you need to specify the center diameter of the hub.

But does an inch and a half make that much difference?

I can't remember if your tires are loaded or not. Mine are.

I put 2" spacers both sides, front and back. I could definitely "feel" the difference. Total 4" wider stance. I don't have the rears filled, if the backhoe isn't on, then my box blade is...that weighs close to 500#.

I don't have any pics of the stabilizer "feet" with the angle iron, I'll take some tomorrow. Here's a pic of the thumb I added. I mounted it higher up so I could grab bigger 'bunches' of brush.

Looks nice. I'm ordering a Piranha tooth bar and Thumb from BXpanded. Do you have a good source for bucket hooks?
