Kubota BX2360
Not being terribly gifted in the DIY department, I opted to purchase a tool carrier from Kolpin Powersports (their UTV / ATV Basket, http://www.kolpinpowersports.com/products/atv-utv-racks/utv-racks/utv-atv-basket.html?vmcchk=1, $50) and mounted it on the ROPS of my BX2360 with 4 u-bolts. The basket is only rated for 35 lbs, but I only intend to use it to store my loppers, cutting shears, machete, hand limb saw, etc.

I wish there was a better place to mount a tool carrier, but this will have to do for now.

Here are some pix...

Thanks for the photos . I tied a flightbag to the ROP, behind the seat
for carrying items of 18" or less. You could keep a chainsaw or
heavy items in yours.:thumbsup:

Nice. Wonder if it would work attached to the lower, non-folding portion of the ROPS?

I personally wouldn't have that mounted higher than my head. There's too much chance of something falling out & injuring someone.

That basket is only good for up to 35 lbs? It looks a little sturdier than that.

Yeah, with the open top, I could see hitting a big bump and having something hop out of there onto your head.

I've been thinking for a while about where to mount a toolbox. I've been trying to find something I could mount to the ROPS behind the seat but it would have to be exactly the right size not to interfere with anything.
