Tool Box for B2650/cab

[PHPaul]

The little tool tray behind the seat A) isn't big enough, and B) does not give me a warm fuzzy feeling storing tools and pins and such next to all that glass.

So:

I mounted a mini-ammo can to the loader mount.

There were three drilled and tapped holes in the loader mount that aren't being used, made up a bracket to fit. Third hole is hidden behind the box.

Left a gap in the corner of the bracket so the retaining pin for the loader can be removed.

I'll get it painted up.

Someday.

Maybe.

I cut the top handles off and the pull handle (the wire bar - just cut it and it comes out both sides) off the front when I put them into fixed service like that. Makes a lot less noise and doesn't affect functionality at all.

Not a bad idea, but I can't hear anything over the hydro whine and engine noise anyway. I have to wear ear protectors just to sit in the cab!

I may take the wire bail off the latch, I never use it anyway. Thanks for the tip!
