Hey, I know we have been here before, but I wanted to post some pics of my recent project on my M6060 Kubota. Just putting it out here for others to see what could be done to a larger utility tractor. I've seen a lot of smaller cab builds but not many on larger utility tractors. I will add a door or doors later and I am not an engineer or welder but I think it has come along nicely for what my expectations were while planning. The side and rear windows are mounted on Bullitt hinges so they can be removed in the summer if needed. Again it is still a work in progress, just kind of showing it off! what do you think about it?

You can watch a video walk around of it on YouTube at:

Nice job!
I did something similar, sure makes a guy wish for square fenders 😆

"sure makes a guy wish for square fenders"

The curved fenders were one of the challenges. I followed the curve with rectangular tube, then used thick clear plastic (strips made for drive-thru reefer doors) to seal the gap.

That is nice, on a little, or a lot higher skill level than me though, but it is nice. And yes Square fenders would have been easier to work with but that's why i just squared the bottom of my tubing. I figured i could fill in between the tubing and the fender if i ever wanted to.

Yes square would have been better to build around. Man yours looks like a tank with those tubes coming up to the front....I like it!

Mowing under the grown in trees around a field, they sure come in handy not to mention "firewooding" in the woods. 👍
Yours and chim's are 2 of the nicest I've seen, or at least remembered. 😄
