JD 4720 ROPS Toolbox Bracket

[bam747]

well, i stopped by the local deere dealter today........sure enough, he had one.....

he priced me the box....$41 or so.....i was impressed with the thickness of the steel compared to what you'd buy at the big box stores....

then he priced me the bracket! $50 something

then, like an idiot, i handed him my check card

OUCH on the bracket price!

Unfortunately, I have not seen any other removable tool box or tool box system that works as well as this particular JD tool box and bracket for use on a tractor.

Well, the total package is expensive, but you can take some solace in the fact that I can tell you from lots of personal experience that it just works, and works well. The one I have has been in use for 35 years, bounced around all kinds of fields doing all kinds of tractor work (mowing, haying, tilling, etc.), and it is still going strong. I didn't really even need to repaint it, but I went ahead and did it (with a spray enamel) just to make it look pretty again.

honestly, i don't mind paying more for something when it is quality and the purpose i have for it requires something heavy duty and built right........

i like to buy things that will outlast me, i like to buy something one time.....and, i'm pretty tight on everything else- i buy used for just everything; atvs, cars, mowers, tools, etc......

now i just need to get it mounted......the new erogonomic tractors don't really have too many places to put things....

Yea my dealer said $52 for the box and $56 for the bracket, at first I thought no way would I pay that much, but I may break down and get it, I don't mind paying good money for something that's just what you need/want. I still can't believe over fifty bucks for a bent pc of metal, maybe I could make the bracket if I had some specs.
