Added two steps to stabilizer cylinder rod guard to help climb up and down. Previous owner had mangled the OEM steps on the stabilizer arm. These are more out of the way of the bucket.

Great job. Looks factory! I am at that age where I can relate to several small steps versus one big one

At 82, I don't get up that way on the hoe anymore.
On my L48 TLB I go through the seat way.
I get up on my tractor using my Specialtyrepairscustommods.com custom step.
Slower, but safer,..... I think.
Be safer and easier to get up and down my goal. Particularly with muddy shoes that goes with excavating. Lots of experience but age will humble you. Used to be able to billy goat around. Generally one man repair and maintenance requires lots of up and down. Hillside wooded land needs egress options. Mega stabilizer pads help plumb the machine on a hillside. Made steps to match the other side. Material and time was minimal Results exceeded expectations.

Added the steps to the OEM cylinder rod guards.Did you fabricate those yourself? So nice they look professionally (aftermarket) made!
