Hi Mike When I had an indoor arena built the builder made a template on the arena wall and preassembled? if that is the term, 5 trusses then lifted them with a zoom boom and drove down the centre of the building to lift and install. Piece of cake. All matched (40m) iwth a truss every 2' (snow...

We did that last year. put the rope at one end and lifted the post up, one person steered it into the hole. No sweat. 70hp tractor. Posts only weigh 200 or less pounds. sorry no photos. I was operating the tractor then got made redundant.

Checkthe height width ratio. Our 70hp kubota is really tippy (5' wide 9' high). Go with the widest base. It isn't fun having a wheel come off the ground.

What is the hp? I mowed for years with a 1974 MF 135 with a loader with a 5' mower. No problem. Love this tractor, but couldn't lift 1200 pound hay bales. b

Do you get snow? We only use the 4wd feature on our 70hp in winter. It needs the 4wd. (not impressed) in winter to move snow and hay.
