Also got my grapple/post hole digger hyd lines plumbed aswell.

Still working on front blade. I got it installed but the lift does not go high enough to get it oon my trailer so I am going to add a 8" cylinder and remove there 6" stoke. This should be an easy fix. It will be a nice addition the haul it with the front blade.
After this is done I will then work on the seat swap, and yes all the parts are here.

Any pics with it all loaded up on the trailer, wouldn't mind one or two of the tow vehicle also.
Thanks

I replaced the lift cylinder of the front blade with a 2 x 8. Now she getshigh enough to load on the trailer.
wmonroe, Here some pics for you.

You mentioned installing lines for the grapple and PHD, are the hydralics enough to power a motor for the PHD?

Nice looking rig. I like the hooks on the brush guard for trailering.

I run a set of hoses from the 3rd SCV on the rear to just under the loader couplers for front mount hyd, this way the re plenty of flow for the PHD. Dealer told me the joystick 3rd control valve would not have enough flow for PHD.
Yes the front hooks are for holding her to the trailer, there just loose enough to swing up/down for automatic adjustment.
Thanks

I like small drives run off the remote for post hole diggers. You can mount them off the front boom you just need the hoses. We have a lot of stones...

I think you could let a couple of lbs of air out the the back and get more traction and a better ride. Get the full bar touching the ground.

DDT,

I was looking at your pics and just noticed that you mounted your brush guard over your mount for the subframe. Every six months I was taking off the brushguard and installing the mount for the subframe. Thanks for the heads up. I will just leave it attached under the brush guard.

Enjoy...It will be interesting to hear what the extra horsepower does for you. I've been real happy with my 5740 (minus cab). I still can't get over the strength of the hydraulics on such a small machine. The price of the Super UDT fluid wrankles my shorts a bit but the few times I've had it out in the cold I haven't noticed any problems with the HST.

You seen right, but I had to cut the front bottom bar out of the grill guard to allow room for the front blade. I got longer bolts for the grill guard and for the mid brackets that attach to loader bottom so there is enough threads to hold.
I did the same to the last tractor and had no problems.

I was useing my DB-6 sraper yesterday. WOW the extra HP with the splitter tranny is asume.
And yes I got my grammer air ride seat installed to, How sweet it is,how sweet it is.
