Ok so it's cheaper to run rear remotes than a third function? I'm looking at about 1000 bucks just for the kit I'm told

Wish I could help, but I bought my tractor with TnT and three rear remotes, C4Ranch put his own rear remotes on, so maybe he can help you. I had my third function added by the dealer and it was about $1500 as best as I remember as I had him do some other stuff while it was there.

It took me two years after buying my tractor to get over the cost and add the grapple etc.; tractors sure get expensive. An air ride seat had priority over everything else and that was about $1100.

That is one of the things about having a cab tractor, for a clean installation you really need to stick with OEM while open station you have more options as to mounting. MtnViewRanch sells all this stuff, but I believe for a cab, he recommends OEM. I bought hydraulic top link from him and the quality is equal to anyone's.

Your probably right I am a little picky about fit n finish I guess it's off to the dealer

Blahahahaha. You're right about one thing.... Buying the tractor IS half the cost!! :laughing:

I added Oem triple remotes but don't have a 3rd function (yet).

You can do a single rear remote with an electric diverter and might save you some. OEM are more expensive but they fit perfectly and instructions make it a snap.

The oem 3rd function has fitted hard lines to go down your FEL if that matters to you or you can build your own.

Another option if you want to save a few bucks(still need the third function),I installed a Greens-Machine Thumb and a tooth bar.It works very well.

By now, I am sure he is starting to think of the old Tom Hanks, Shelly Long movie "The Money Pit"..

"when is this "darn" thing going to be ready" "TWO WEEKS!"

 

[pardon my french]

I guess I will just spring for the items it's only cash

 

[pardon my french]

We'll that just looks so cool I have been just thinking about adding a huge thumb to the bucket as I have to be carefull with a grapple with the cab

Well once you have the items installed, you will have them! it only hurts for a little while.. The joy of usage can go on for years..

Lmao that's funny I know it will never end but that's ok I drive a car with 220,000 miles on it and as I said before I would rather have a nice tractor

 

[pardon my french]

You are are one hundred percent correct, I honestly am just so happy that I just gotta take my time and do it right so there are no regrets

I have been throwing around getting a snow blower or a blade for the tractor any thoughts I really like the hiniker blades with the back drag feature really cool

What is your driveway surface? How long is it? I would prefer a blower over the plow for a long blacktop or concrete driveway. Hiniker makes some nice plows though.

 

[pardon my french]

My drive way is about 100 feet long and paved but I due driveways on the side for xtra income I was thinking with the hiniker I could just back drag the driveways in a lot less time than snow blowing

 

[wmonroe]

The blower would be very nice on your paved drive, but the Hiniker would probably be a better "all around" tool for numerous drives.

 

[pardon my french]

Yeah I am torn and having a hard time on which one

 

[wmonroe]

Are you considering a front or rear blower?
