Just curious didnt we know there was a conversion kit availible for the 1500. I was thinking we talked about it before. I was also thinking the 1700 there was no kit? Just correct me if im wrong, mabe i imagined it, and its a new item.

We just finished up the kit for the 1500. It turned out really good. We are just waiting on one more shipment of adapter brackets to come in from a company here in Texas. We hope to have them ready to ship in the next few days. They are a true work of art... they do an amazing job. The prototype is already installed on a tractor but I will upload a picture once they get here. We had to use a stunt double on our temporary pictures on the website so the aluminum bracket shown is not the real bracket.
I hope to have a video soon of the tractor with the pump installed.
The conversion kit for the 1700 has been available for several years --

Does anyone who has added one of these kits have a temperature comparison of before/after?

That is a good idea. We are the only ones to have this1500 kit installed yet but we should test before & after temps. If only we had some really warm weather so we could test it properly :laughing:

I have seen several post about the 1700 kit lowering temps substantially. I'm sure the 1500 kit will be similar.

The brackets finally arrived and they look great! We are finishing up the instructions and the first kits should ship today.
oh... and the 10 day weather forecast I posted almost a month ago is still accurate! Still no rain in sight & 55+ days in a row now of over 100 degrees.
