There never seems to be enough storage space on my tractor, and I know it has the little tool box, but that not covenant, and won't hold much. so I made a frame out of small angle iron 29.5 x 11.75, and installed it in between rear fenders and behind the seat. It's small enough not to interfere with the 3 pt hitch, but adequate enough to Carry what I need.

Wow, that looks great ! I'm surprised it does not interfere with the 3pt though. I know on Loretta's Jinma hers rises up pretty high. How about your hydraulic box fill, can you still get to it? It sure makes sense to have a little carrying tray like that. It would come in super handy for all of us. Good job! Rob-

Hey turbo you do good work thats a pretty slick setup you got there. Seems like everything fits just right too. So what's with the crossed out "US" on the plastic postal box? LOL
I need to do something like that to carry chain saws, 2 stroke fuel and some odds and ends. You have motivated me to get that done.

Very nice. One detail I missed is what did you use as a bottom panel? I built a similar tray that pins on the pivot brackets of my ROPS. On my Kama those pivots are lower than on the Jinmas. I still tend to climb onto the implement to get best access. It's easy to remove when needed for example to install the backhoe attachment. It has been VERY handy. I'm sure yours will be too. Brad

Thank guys, I though you like the Chinese postal service box, I mean you got to admit that everything made in the USA has gone to Japan or China for the cheaper labor and the way our US postal service closing down offices around the county I sure that it won't take long for them to jump ship too.. so to speak! Brad the frame is open bottom so I can get access to under the seat to check the oil, but I found it was high enough that I didn't need to remove anything. I do like your set up. Robin
