Well Done! I like the chain carrier idea too. :thumbsup:

I made a similar set-up for my 790 when I owned it.....and it sure was handy. I realize how tricky it is to get the proper relationships of the "bracketrey" due to all the compound angles - nice job.

I wish for one on my current tractor....but get along with the fender box. I do wish some enterprising person would offer bolt-on kits for popular tractor models.

OH....BTW....not sure if you travel on the roadways.....but, if so, you may want to get a slow-moving-vehicle bracket (bracket and "pocket") so you can mount same on your tool box. They have the bracket at farm stores.
Have no intention to travel on the road, but I think I will just make a magnetic bracket for the signal.

Chain carrier is a nice addition :thumbsup: I usually wrap a chain on the lower 3pt links when I need one.

Are those Rigid LED lights? How do you like them?

Hit the shop this morning early, finished my tool box and chain setup.
$14 in two cans of paint, with left overs.
$20 in steel
$20 for the u bolt kit, just bought another canopy top mount kit. 2x3 rop.
$60 for the limited tool box, nice steel by the way, its heavyier than my craftsman that looks the same.

6 hours of work, getting the angle right for the ROP was a little tricky if you decide to do this because its also off camber and of course angled. I made a cross member out of wood first then used it for the steel referance.

Hope you like the chain idea, bad comments also welcome. ;)

Good job, looks great.

The rigid lights are great, very bright and I also posted a short review of them. I did buy a better "tractor quality" switch. Other than that they are top notch.

Very nice work. Does your top-link hit when the 3PH is raised all the way?

1/2 Clearence from the chain hook holder, I measured for the box and mounted the ring in the middle not thinking, well got lucky it doesn't hit.
