Read articles →This is a narrow DIY project video, not a tractor overview: a B2301 owner shows how he built a homemade bucket load-level indicator for his LA435 Swiftac pin-on loader using an eyelet, a threaded aluminum rod, a rod end, and a paint mark, all through existing factory holes with no drilling. Useful specifically for B2301 owners wanting a cheap, simple leveling reference, not for general shopping research.
Posted by the Just Outside City Limits channel, an owner sharing a personal DIY fix from his own tractor.
Use a 3/8 inch eyelet through a factory hole, a 7/16 aluminum rod threaded with a die, and a female rod end with lock nuts and washers, no drilling required.
An eyelet, a length of 7/16 aluminum rod, a female rod end, rod end washers, a longer carriage bolt, and lock nuts.
Lay the bucket flat, then put a paint mark on it so you can see from the tractor seat when the bucket is level.
