I'm sure there are many that have done this. Works good for me.
3 nozzels, 15 gallon, remote switch, with wand.

Looks good. What nozzles did you use and how wide does it spray? I want to do the same thing on the back of my tractor, but want to be able to spray the road with out spraying the yard.

Ed,
Looks like those nozzels are TEEJET 11004 VP. Red. I just guessed when I bought them 5 or 6 years ago. They fan out about a foot at a foot off of the ground. I only use it for broadleaf control. I don't have much trouble with overspray, but I would urge calm winds.

I was using this tank on a carryall but it made the tractor so long for maneuvering. Much easier on the front. Also, if the tank was anything more than a 15 gallons I would have to put some weight on the back. (Small tractor)

Nice, put some "liquid de-icer" in there come winter.

Actually, being that the tank is only 15 gallons it's pretty easy to manhandle it (empty) and get residual liquid out after use or season.
I must admit after a truly mean midwestern winter, I was wondering if I would have some problems. Knock wood.... after six years this setup has been without problem.

Looks good! I ave thew Northern Tool 26 Gal unit with the broadcast nozzles mounted in a carryall on the back of my tractor. I was going to do as you did, but decided I'd rather drive away from the spray rather than toward it. Plus I can use the wand from the seat of the tractor.

I do need to make a wood cradle to keep the tank from shifting in the carryall.
