I have a shelf in my garage where I keep all my awful, weird, or creative "fixes" I've found on tractors over the years. I took a homemade steering wheel off of a panzer one time and hung it on the wall and I have rubber tarp straps hanging off it it. It made a great organizer! 1 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
