B 2650 tool box ideas

[gregb46]

Does anyone have any ideas or pictures of tool boxes they have made or purchased and mounted on a 2650 with ROPS?

This is a quick and cheap tool storage I mounted onto my B2301. Don't know if it is what you are looking for or whether it will fit.

How'd you mount it?

I designed and fabbed up a toolbox that mounts to the existing holes in the loader frame that works pretty well to put chains and things in.

they're are TONS and TONS of tool box threads. Great informative stuff. Question is..... since they are scattered all thru out this forum..

.... Should I merge most all of them all into one Magic Tool Box Fabrication thread that "I think" would get more use, spawn more ideas etc?

.... Or let things fall as they may with newest thread(s) on this subject in the top page(s) to get pushed down as they age to join all rest sitting in the archives in obscurity?

So what do ya'll think

Coach - sounds like a good idea to bunch them all together, would that be a lot of work on your end however?

People who read the stickies are rare, but you could create a thread there in the supersticky in which there is a list of links to the tool box threads, maybe with a line or 2 of text describing the model or approach, and then update as needed. Merging them into one giant thread could be cumbersome.

I used the light angle that the triangle mounts to and added 2 short angle sections to that. Drilled 2 holes through the plastic box and used 2 multi-hole pins to locate.
I only use this for some tools, pins and light straps, nothing heavy like chains.

Removes in seconds when access is needed.

Hope that helps.

Actually it is opposite. Creating a link to each of the ton of great threads for adding into the ULTIMATE readme would be massively time consuming. Where as using Mod tools to click and merge a bunch of threads weeded out via a search.... would all in one swoop; take little time.

End result would look like the "What did you to on your tractor today" threads we have in other forums. These tend to pop up somewhere into the top page all on their own. Suspect this would too so was not thinking it "needed" a place in the ULTIMATE read me though I'd put a link there anyway.

Looks great, nice touch with orange chain. Did you paint the chain?

No I didnt paint it. I found this chain at Lowes. It was 12ft, grade 43 chain in a plastic case already painted orange! I thought to myself this was meant to be, I wanted 2- 6 foot chains, so I cut it in half, bought 2 more hooks, and then had my 2 chains for lifting things around my shop and off my trailer. I think it was around $28.00.

I don’t know about Lowes but Home Depot sells the orange grade 43 5/16” chain by the foot.

I find it quite amazing that after all this time, and all the aftermarket fabricating, that Kubota themselves haven't come up with a decent tool-box or place to mount it.
If I was out spending tens of thousands on a machine, they could very easily up-sell me on a decent tool-box.
(But then, we wouldn't be having all this fun now would we?)
