    Today, we installed our mailbox! We got exciting news. Our driveway entrance was approved and we got an address. So we got the sledgehammer out and installed a mailbox.
    We had some trying times with the breaking some things. The fuel/water separator somehow lost the drain plug, the back wheel of the bush hog fell off, and I smashed my iPhone with the wheel.

    Remember- your tractor is not a skidder. Using it like a skidder will destroy it unless you have it fitted with steel plate protection like the utilities use. Backing over material that sticks up can rip off your hydraulics, filters, fuel water separator, etc. BTW your clean up is looking great.

      Thanks! That is a very accurate statement Lee. I think the separator drain plug was just not on tight. However I did run over something that ripped a fuel line off. That was a great learning experience of what NOT to do. :)
      I'm considering getting some skid plates manufactured for it though.

    That box may last a year or two. I grew up on a country rd. Between accidents and unruly teens, you might want to use steel pole in concrete with a heavy steel box.

      I think you're probably right. However we're on a dead end road with little to no traffic. This Is temporary though. We'll probably upgrade at some point. I like your idea of a steel pole with concrete.

      Thanks Man. That was a rough week for sure! It's been a while since I've broken anything on the tractor, So I think I'm figuring stuff out. But we totally blew out our concrete forms during the pour today, but we fix it, so everything turned out well.

      I'd have to agree. It does have a protective plate in front of it fortunately, but nothing protecting it from underneath.
