Hey All,
I've wanted to mount a toolbox on my tractor to hold some basic stuff. All I really want is a small box to hold a pair at gloves, a rag, leatherman, spare glasses and a crescent wrench for the 3PH.

I have a bunch of ammo boxes and small toolboxes hanging around, and I though about mounting one to the ROPS, but I just never got around to it.

I was at Harbor Frieght the other day and picked up a small plastic Ammo can that seemed about the perfect size. I like that it's plastic so it won't rust and for $6 I knew I couldn't go wrong.

I was walking around the Tractor (BX2370) trying to decide where to put it when inspiration ensued!!

That box fits PERFECT between the ROPS, cup holder and seat!! No mounting required!
You would swear that space was made for this box!
The only thing i did was add 4 rubber feet to the bottom of the box so it wouldn't scratch the paint!

I was gonna post this in the "Harbor Frieght tools that don't Suck" thread, but I thought here was better
Cheers,

Hmmmm, I wonder if my seat on the BX25D, would clear that when I swivel to use the Backhoe. Maybe a quick attach feature would be required?
I like it. :thumbsup:

You kind of just push it into that spot, and it fits tight and holds? Does the seat have to be positioned at a particular spot, or can the seat still be adjusted?
