X370 Foot Pedal to Hand Control Conversion

[Jg1]

I have a 2022 X370 and I was hoping to convert the forward/reverse foot pedal control to a hand control. I’ve read some articles but my linkage seems to be a little different. I haven’t made anything up yet but the few times I’ve had an idea for mounting a rod or lever on my pedal, the break pedal looks like it would be in the way. Right now I’m using a cane to push the pedals in but I can’t use the cruise control when I’m snow blowing. I would appreciate any ideas or if someone has done this already if they could send some pictures.
Thanks

It would take some engineering. My first thought would require modification of the fender deck. But, the pedals easily remove and levers could be fashioned that bolt on. If you went through the existing holes on the fender deck, I'd think the brake pedal would also need modification.

Where do you want the hand control located. Some older tractors like 316, 317, 318 had the HST in the dash on the right side and I always found that to be an awkward position.

Like Tom stated,
You will need to do a little engineering on getting the hand lever in a position that works without interfering with where your foot normally rests or any other control like brakes, etc.

Show a pic or two of the present situation, and maybe some helpful ideas will come forth.

If me, I think I would start with the fender deck off, and attempt to find a way to tie into and move the linkage system leading up to the foot pedals.
Sure hope you find a way to adapt to getting beyond having to use a cane to operate your tractor for snow removal.
