| Near mint for sure, looks like it just rolled out of the showroom!
Be sure to use some diagonal supports for your rear lift, I would hate to see your extension get bent backwards.
Keep us updated though, shes looking great already! Nice lift by the way, I need one of those. Head Forum Administrator ** Chat Moderator ** Facebook Page AdminATLTF Facebook Page ** Chatbox ** How To Upload Pictures

| I didn't work on this project for the last two days. Had Boy Scout stuff to do for one of the boys all day yesterday and spent the day at a friends house helping him with his enclosed trailer today. Got home from my friends and had to do some painting that was on my chore list. Afterwards went into the shop to wash out the paint tray and brush and was staring at this on the lift. I wanted to see if my measurements actually worked out and if it would sit level when the front tires were on. Jacked up the rear on one side and removed the tire. Then leveled it out in the rear. Slid the tire on the front spindle. It went on tight against the ramp so it's were it is supposed to be. Man when I stepped back it looked perfectly level. Can't believe all the numbers worked out. Now I'm going to being working like mad so I can get this at least road worthy so I can get it outside and take it for a spin!!! | |

| this is just me looing and guessing, but it looks like you have about 25 to 27 inches from the floor to the foot board, lol this is a really clean build man good job, im getting started on mine soon i hope, i have almost everything i need to build it

| The bottom pulley was for the deck belt. It is larger than the drive pulley which you can't see.
Actually I had layed this out so that the bottom edge of the frame, which is level with the bottom of the foot boards is 24" off the ground with 23X9.50-12 tires and that's what it turned out to be. Now that I see the stance of the tractor, I'm thinking about going with a little bigger diameter tire. | |
