Cup Holder

Peej · Jun 14, 2009

Ford 850 I bought the one from dicks for my TC35, couldn't see paying dealer for the fancy one. Works great, I set it on the platform just in front of the seat and its always there. Bought my Hunting club buddy one for his Kubota. Helps to keep it cool also. $4.99?

Nice!

That's a nice chain box!... How long of a chain can you fit in it??

Do you have another chain box on the other side??

Yea that's a nice chain box!

I have seen people make them from PVC pipe... and i have also seen some put chains through a place in their loader arms.

I usually have a water bottle with me, I just put it inside the Toolbox which is just to left of my Seat. Out of the sun and easy to reach

Yes I have one on both sides. I have 20ft of 1/2" in each but Im sure it will hold 30 ft or so. Im thinking I made them out of 3x6 tube with ex mtl welded on the bottom.

That's a good place to mount them and they will hold a lot of chain.

Most of the time i will put my chains in my BH bucket.

Great job & thanks for the info.

Man, I need to get it in gear. I use a piece of cardboard, duct tape and some bungee cords for mine. Looks like i need to up grade.

Peej, I didn't buy one when I was at Dick's, but I hope to grab one next time. They looked like a decent quality holder. The platform is a safe place and is shaded much of the time too.
