Bought one LS2030H subcompact

The first thing I carried in the bucket, had me thinking, now I know why guys have hooks welded to the bucket. Thats on my "to do list" for spring. :

There are plenty of threads here on bucket hooks and the cautions needed when welding them on and using them. Be sure to read up on those threads about installation and use of hooks if you are not already familiar with tractors, FELs and bucket hooks. If you have ANY questions, pose the question here first and we can help you make an informed decision on placement, installation and use.

Good advice Gary, I should look into this before I go welding some on. Since I have welded on cars(roll bars/frame ties/etc) I know better then to leave the bucket attached to the tractor when I weld it. However there are likely useful places for a hook, versus just putting them randomly.

Got to plow the driveway today, bummer we only had about 4" of fluff that even a hand shovel would have worked easy. The tractor did well, but since I didnt get to grade my driveway prior to the freeze, the hump down the center makes the plowing a real challenge. Also noticed not much stops this thing, not even the grass.
