Here are two of the easiest mod to do on a small tractor.
First every morning when I go out to the rig-a-dig the BH stabilizers have settle a bit and this is normal on hydraulics, but unsettling if you forget and barely clear the door frame. So took two length of 3/8” polypropylene rope made a loop on one end, fed the loose end around the shaft and tied back. It is gentle and easy to remove when using the BH.
Next, that wonderful high tech machined PTO spindle with all those highly machined teeth looks so naked, hanging down below the floor boards in the dirt and mud. So took a short piece of Schedule 40 PVC water pipe, stuck a cap on the end, slathered some grease on that bare spindle and slid the short piece of pipe over it flush to the trans. Fiction fit peace of mind for this kid. Note, still there after 226 hours of digging in the dirt.
