How do you carry stuff on your Wheel Horse?

[cjb398 29]

I have a 417-H, but that is not important. I often find that I'd like to carry small items like pliers, wrenches, brush saws, gloves, wire, or really anything, and I end up having to hold it in a bucket or some other means while driving. Not very practical. Did Wheel Horse offer any kind of basket or compartment in any of there tractors for carrying stuff?  Or does anybody have suggestions for doing this. Pictures would be great! TIA.

Mine has a compartment under the seat that most of that stuff would fit in. I do keep some tools in there.

 

You could probably make a basket of some sort for the hitch.

I put a seat cover on mine that is nothing but pockets on the back. If what I need won't fit there I hitch up the rolling toolbox or my trailer. 

 

But a carry basket thing would be cool to have. Like the ones on a farm ATV.

I like makin' stuff... 

 

Of course half of what I make doesn't work.

If I can’t carry it, the trailer gets used. The smaller stuff goes in a bag and then on the trailer.

But half does!

1.  We generally use a trailer.

2.  I've considered a hitch mounted basket.  

3. See #1...

The one on the right was not originally built for this but the left was.

My back yard is fenced in for the dogs. My shed is back there and inside is a WH cart. It's a pain to get it out and open the gates for any small job like carrying tools for anything to do in the front yard so I have this little Toro cart that stores easy, dumps and is cute as a button!

 

If it fits it ships!

Does it have suspension?  Sway bars?

Pivots in the front. No suspension.

Just an idea for @adsm08 💡
