Where o where can I put even a small tool box? With backhoe on, there is just no space I can see. Mid mount mower takes up belly space.

Kubota has a OEM toolbox and bracket that mounts on the ROPS. Not real big, but it allows you to carry the basics. It does however get in the way when you have to swivel the seat when using the backhoe.

Does your seat back have plugs for arm rests? Can you mount something to the back of the seat? It would be small, but it may get you out of a bind. Jon

I use a soft tool bag that I put behind the seat. I just carry the basics that I might need in the field. Gloves, safety glasses, pins, tie wraps, rag, crescent wrenches, etc.
I have a winter bag too that has shear pins, drift, and wrenches.

TV,
I don't know how to point you to a trhread, but if you search "ToolBX" you'll find my solution.
I'll try to copy here, but no guarantee it will work:
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,
