Wrapping the front tires with #40 roller chain for snow blowing and snow plowing.

Much better steering on ice and snow.

Added weight to the snow plow frame back at the rear. It kills 2 birds with added weight to the rear tires and to the plow blade for better scraping.

 

The tow ball on the front is useful so I bolt one on to the loader bucket when ever it's needed. No need to get my lazy butt out of the seat to move trailers.

How did you mount the weights?

 A seat, any seat will do that has some spring to it for the models with a solid one.  This is from a MTD and is raised up enough that I can get on the machine. It is one of those ugly "git -er -done"  projects born of necessity that just hang around  and people make fun of.

 

 Also adding some strength to the transmission tunnel by adding angle iron frame to the top at the rear. Probably the only spot on our tractors that is under engineered. Both the 520 and the Raider 10 were cracked on the seat and pan mounts. Probably happened because that one farmer decided to keep his side ditch mowed,and everyone else did the same Leaning sideways on the seat while mowing to keep upright is hard on the little bit of metal where everything is attached

 

 

 

 

 Oh. And Ed just made my day with the Mole Killer

I like my hydraulic lift I built out of necessity to replace the manual lift on my raider 6 speed. Currently being modified and upgraded but I have used it for implements, dragging stumps and logs, and as a tow tractor.

Could we get some more detail and more :text-coolphotos:on how the hydraulic lift was built and mounted? :banana-wrench:

Thanks for the interest. Look in my Raider 12 modifications current build. I think you'll find what you are looking for.

We assume,,,that Ed K_____ll wi;; be bringing the Rottotiller,,front yard driller,,belt driven thing to the show,,,,,,,

it can be displayed in the (((( Evolution of Cultiviccation )))))  section in the lower field,,,,,

 

and based on the vote in this thread,,,,,,,,,It looks like Front end Loaders/Jonny Buckets,,,should be the feature tractors next year.

We don't need a 3rd year of Modifieds,,,,,,,,,   just IMHO

I didn't make it myself, but the best thing I have done to my 416-H horse is to install Matt's foot pedal motion control.

@Ed Kennell I think Ed has been holding out on all his engineering skills , he needs to bring step by step pictures to the Big Show and teach a class. FEL my main I wish I had. I did put an electric actuator on the rear of my 310-8 to operate the clevis hitch . If I have time before the show I will post pictures of my 416-8 "What the What" ( notice I cleaned that phase up a bit ) @JPWH needs to provide more details on that rear blade .

@Ed Kennell I hope you are bringing your Rat rod or what you call your latest build. The one where wide bodied members will not fit. :ROTF:

I'm thinking one of the features should be Favorite Wheel Horse Modifications. It looks like there is a lot of interest based on the interest and responses of this thread. :banana-dance::banana-wrench::banana-jumprope::banana-blonde::banana-rock::banana-dreads::banana-linedance::banana-guitar:

I have to admit the same what Bob mentioned, Matts foot pedal kit was the best I ever did.

 

BTW fellas some great ingenious ideas that have been posted by everyone, this is leaning on being one of my favorite threads I have read, keep those ideas and pictures coming in.....:greetings-clappingyellow:
