Tool Box for BX25D

[Cherokee140]

Trying to figure out a place to put a tool box on this little thing. I just can't seem to find a spot, or box for that matter that seems to work. I generally use old ammo cans for boxes on tractors, they are easy to get into, have a good seal on them and come in different sizes.

Any suggestions on a good place to mount, or a good box.

I currently have a tow strap around the front grill guard....and I hate it there....I just can't find a good spot to hang anything on this little guy.

If you guys have photos on what you have done that would be great.

This is a real problem for BX series that have a backhoe. Mine is a BX24 and I finally found something that would work. The following is an old thread but a good one.

The box mentioned can be found at 301 Moved Permanently

I added this carry-all from the $Store. I paid a buck for it. It fastened with a zip tie to the loader pin.

Why couldn't you make something that had a "belt clip" that hooked over the left loader tower for one fastener and the zip tye down low like you did, but making a much larger box, that could even have drawers or compartments. Now I have given you something to think about.

I also moved my fanny flag and mounted a tool box on bar behind seat.

Kubota makes one for the bx, it mounts to the ROPS. Part # U91500 or it might be w/g bx3068(looking at part diagram for 2370)
I was going to order one this week. No idea what the price is, most likely more than what I think it should be. 4shorts has one on his bx.

Just a PVC tube here.

That is a good spot, but on mine the brake is over there, so that will be a no-go. Looks like it would work real well.

I really like your idea here.

I just use a small soft tool bag, change out the tools for winter to include shear pins and a drift. But I find the soft bag tucks behind the seat nicely and when I use the BH, I move it. No biggie. It holds just what's necessary, nothing more.

btw - What's necessary MUST include a first aid kit. I also carry a can of wasp spray in the summer.
