I am wanting to mount a small toolbox on my tractor for the things I always seem to need such as hammer, pliers, crescent wrench, etc. I am just curious as to what you guys have used and how and where you mounted them.

I know PineRidge has a nice simple bolt on mount. I built one that went across the lower part of my rops using the rops bolts. I did not have my box blade center link yet. I got my center link and well lets just say there is a dent in my tool box. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

If you have a kubota, you don't need a toolbox. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Do some searching on this forum for "Rops Rack." You should get lots of posts explaining how to make one of these. Easy to do -basically bolt on some angle iron using U-bolts. Then I used a larger-sized ammo box that I attach to the Rops rack with a bungie cord. (the box sits on top of the rack). Simple and effective. The only thing I had to modify was to remove the triangle reflector from the back of my seat.

Mathey -

Hey - what's that 3 point gizmo on the back of your tractor?
And I like your tool box.
