I agree with ya. No matter how cheap I could ship it, it'd likely offset any savings. :-(. I guess I just have to be patient.

I know a guy in Massachusetts looking for a 72" project mower. <-------- this guy. Unfortunately, there not as prevalent as they are in your area.

Snapdealer - not sure you caught my post in the attachment section, but this is what I ended up with and these are both Ken's Bolt on Clevis and Ken's Weld on Hooks.

Another L3200 joins the family. Delivering like rabbits right now. :p

I'm in the market for a 72" finish mower. Just took delivery of my L3200 HST maybe a month or so ago. I started combing CL and came across this ad. This combination is nearly the price of a new mower? :confused: Almost got me thinking... if I had this, I'd never have to take my FEL off to...

Congrats and welcome. Thanks for sharing the pics too! Nice to see another L3200/L3800 being put to good use!

<--- Jealous.

Well, after much debate, this is what I ended up with. A brand new bucket with two new holes and two new hooks welded to it. It only stung for a minute and now all is well.

Welcome to the family. Keep us posted on all of your fun new attachments. We like pictures!

Chim - I didn't realize you don't have the QA bucket. I think I got some versatility with my setup (maybe not as much as yours). I got the clevis mounted to the center of my bucket, but have yet to weld the hooks on. Right now I have 1/2" grade 8 hardware with two washers beneath the...

For what its worth, I have the same tractor as Chim (L3200 HST). I don't have many hours on it yet, but I haven't run out of power yet.

I don't see much room to use plate on the LA524. The top plate is 1/4" with a flat surface on top approx 3" wide. There's a weld along the front of the plate and a weld beneath it (used for mounting the QA plating). I don't see it bending much if at all. My center clevis will be bolted and my...

Well played. If I bought a new one, I would've played the same card. Who knows if you would end up with unbalanced blades.

Nice rig! (I have to say that right?) Definitely jealous of your finish mower. :o

I bought this same tractor for the same reason. Zero interest, no hassles with dealing with a used tractor. Not that I'm recommending this, but I'm relatively new to the tractor world and couldn't afford to be running into troubles with a used one right out of the gate. Could I deal with it...

I think Chim's idea will work. I think I'll go the plate route with hooks on the outside and clevis in the center. The advantage being I can swap them out whenever necessary. I have quite a bit of 1/4" angle iron kicking around as well, so a set of those may be in order as well.

Maybe an Admin can consolidate our posts. I just posted this 2 days ago... http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11469 Its in the Attachment section. I have the same bucket. Hooks deliver today.

Chim - I meant to ask you how the strap was holding? Based on the designs, it doesn't appear it takes much to hold the brush forks on? All things considered, I feel like a regular tie down could hold these things. I've been cutting mounting hardware for the last hour and I feel like I'm...

Chim nice work!!! Way to surpass my build! :-) I like your idea. I'm taking your mounting idea and following suit, only I'm mounting to a clevis on the back of the bucket. Clevis should deliver by the weekend.

Just wondering if anyone has bolted or welded a set of these to their bucket? If so, did you use backer plates for added support or did you weld/bolt straight to the bucket? I have a set of Ken’s hooks (weld) delivering shortly and plan to install them as soon as they arrive. Thanks in advance.
