I gotta ask. Anyone found a more user friendly method of adjusting the spread on the lower arms if a GC? Those turnbuckles are a pain in the arse. Even before I bent mine with that cultivator they were rather time consuming to adjust. Any aftermarket product that is faster and easier? Anybody found a good way to mount a toolbox as well? Would be nice to keep some tools handy.

As far as the lower arms (3PT?) I do not know of any thing easier. I have my toolbox mounted between the uprights on the grill guard. The other place is mounting on the ROPS.

There are a couple threaded holes in the frame behind the seat that make great toolbox bracket attachment points.

Behind the seat gets in the road if you have a BH.

For tools, I made a vinyl pouch with a velcro storm flap, and attached to the back of the seat

I have the original model, which does not have a pocket on the back of the seat.
