I bought the front facing lights from Deere that mount on the signal brushguards as well as the rear worklight. The front facing lights are plug in and help greatly for after dark snow plowing. After I got them you could really tell the difference. The rear work light splices into one of the purple wires that feeds the front facing work light with a 10 cent connector.
Lighting plans for this year include adding another work light to the rear and putting the rear lights on their own waterproof toggle switch. As the tractor comes wired the front and rear work lights come on and go off at the same time. I use a three point log splitter and don't need the front lights on.

Well, before today the only tractor I've spent any time on was our 1951 Workmaster (gas).
I can't believe I waited this long to get on a JD. It was about 35 degrees this morning when they arrived at the house with it, me and my 3 year old didn't get out of the seat for atleast an hour. I'm not sure who was the most excited, him or I. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
We are expecting 2 to 4 inches of the white stuff here in South Carolina (nothing like some of you have alread gotten), my boy can't wait to get out in it on the big green machine.
Thanks again,

Dblbeard,

Let me know how you like it. I am more than a little jealous. I am getting ready to get the same setup. Only difference may be the 430 loader. Did you get the 300X or the 300CX loader with yours?

I am really interested in how well it will pull a blade.

Sorry it took so long for me to get back, I got the 300cx loader. So far I really like it. I'm really not sure what the differences are between the 430 and the 300's, I really didn't have any experience with any other loaders to compare mine to.
