He also shows a bonus welded receiver-hitch adapter off his quick attach. Best for owners wanting a cheap, buildable leveling solution rather than tractor specs or performance info.
Posted by Alan's Outdoors, an owner sharing a hands-on DIY project from his own homestead tractor.
The factory indicator is very low and hard to see from the operator seat, hidden among the arms and hydraulic lines, making it hard to judge bucket angle while digging or smoothing dirt.
Get the tractor on level ground and the bucket perfectly level, mark the rod where it sticks up, cut it off, and reattach the end cap so flush means level.
Pipe clamps attached to the cylinder, three-eighths inch standoffs, half inch pipe, an orange fiberglass snow marker rod, a ball joint connector, eyebolts, and epoxy.
A welded receiver hitch adapter made from a bracket off a scrapped Ford Ranger, bolted to the drawbar off his quick attach to help move trailers.
