Sure thing. I meant to do that but just forgot.

I think that about covers it. I do need to rethink the switches. I just need to find a switch the same or later diameter, so make a good choice BEFORE you drill holes for them. The Monitor and the RAM mount are held on by Stainless Steel screws. The mounting location of the fuse block is actually lower than in the picture. When it was there it interfered with the console and I needed to move it lower about 3/4".
Sweet! Thank you very much!

Sweet! Thank you very much!
One more thing. When installing this stuff you will, depending on your tractor model, need to remove the steering wheel. kubota's tool for doing so is about 750.00 if i remember correctly. Screw that. Back the 17mm nut off ALMOST all the way. Enough to protect the threads in the shaft. With a helper, Tap on the nut with a hammer as you lift on the wheel from opposite sides (equal vertical pulling) it should work loose.

Plan you mods to be done all at once or go to your dealer and get a spare nut. After taking the wheel off a few times with this method it beats the nut up pretty good. I had deformed the threads inside the nut and had a tough time reshaping them with the shaft. Used some anti seize to keep the threads from galling up but a spare nut is a good step.

Save the beat up one for using to tap the wheel off and use the new one for reinstalling.

That's sweet WoodyBlue. Excellent job.

Been a while since I looked around the site lately. Lots of really nice iron on display.

Congrats on the tractor, i as well just received my own L2501. I pulled the trigger on the backhoe. I was wondering how are u powering the fuse block you installed?
