Very nice! I like the setup. BTW, your tractor is too clean!

All my equipment is clean or cleaner than most. I keep it all clean for my business. I'm a believer in image says a lot.

Thanks guys now I need to figure out a way to hold the cylinder up out if the way when something isn't attached.

I don't know if this will work for you or not, but look to see if you were to twist the OEM hook 90* if it will hook onto one of the hydraulic ports. That is what worked out for my 3215.

Great idea, and if that dont work on his tractor just knock the flux off a welding rod, emery it up and bend it up however you need.

How would I do that? I've never done that with a rod

Dont know if ur kidding or not, but knock off flux with a hammer, bend a loop on the end for the bolt, then just shoot from the hip from there! Whatever you need.

I work off an anvil alot so im sorry bud! Lets say you need a 2in diameter. Find a socket that fits ur needs, put it in a vice, then vise grip ur welding wire to it and tap it around. Theres ur loop bud.

O ya I've seen pics of the being done. What's the best way to clean off the rod?

 

[weldermike]

Just tap it lightly with a hammer on a table or something, then hit it with emery paper to smoothe off the chunks.
