Backhoe pin hanger

[2515R Dude]

On Branson tractors there are two pins used to secure the boom. I always was concerned to loose them.
Came up with this little hanger. I bet there are better ways of doing it, but it was quick and easy.

Nice pin rack. Those pins need to be handy to conveniently lock and unlock the backhoe. Most manufacturers have a pin pocket. Hope vibration doesn’t spin the single point attachment but your hook is substantial enough not to loose the pins if it did. Good idea.

Yes, it getting loose also was my concern, it is why I taped the wall, and put lockouts from both sides.
At the end, the concern was unnecessary because the backhoe does not have any noticeable vibration while being used, mine at least.

I put my hanger off to the side of the control pedastal so I would not bang my knees on it.

I don't bang my knees in it because they are on the other, backhoe side of the consol.
