Pullstart 68,790 #51 Posted October 25, 2025 Interesting geometry on this setup! IMG_7515.mov 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 30,516 #52 Posted October 26, 2025 IMG_8643.mov First try with back blade and rake... blade needs weight but functional. rake tines need to be trimmed 3" to raise / lower adequately. it binds up at top if I don't stop it in time. Thinking need to either add a hard stop or eliminate the parallel function and replace with single 2" square tube that simply pivots on one plane... use pin so I can raise / lower it on the vertical beam. Thoughts appreciated. Oh, and Denali liked the new flat area so much he pooped on it right at the end of the video...!!!

I'm not an engineer so I appreciate such input... it's mounted via a 2" hitch from wheel horse parts and more... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpinnc 17,072 #56 Posted November 4, 2025 Very nice! With these tractors, you just never run out of options when making new attachments! My favorite part of my tractors anyway. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SylvanLakeWH 30,516 #58 Posted 4 hours ago Reconfiguring the rear hitch system... a bit less complicated and far stronger... lower center of gravity, higher lifting of implements. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a set of chains that I am going to put on it. But if they don't fit I will take you up on that offer!!! Mud...? What mud? But to be fair, @Pullstart obviously gave me a defective tractor... not to mention the faulty mud in his back forty... I mean, you can't even drive a bus through the field... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
