jay bee 817 #5 Posted April 17, 2018 I'd vote for a pony keg (flavor of your choice) mounted to the front of the tractor and a long tap hose leading back to the driver. As the front tank and the rear tank empty simultaneously, problem solved!!! 3 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand the "pony" reference to WH and all, but me thinks you are gonna need at least a 1/2 keg...or perhaps two or three "ponies" to make up the volume...

Sarge 3,462 #8 Posted April 17, 2018 I'd be paying real close attention to that seat/fender latch - have you tried filling that tank yet ? Sarge 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge Yes filled it with water yesterday to test the pump and check for leaks. The boom on the back is also braced to the transmission to keep it from collapsing under it's own weight. This is just a temporary solution until I get my shop and welder set up where I can build something more permanent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
