- I added some well needed tool storage to my Kubota BX2380. I tried an unorthodox method of attaching it. Watch to find out if it worked.

I installed the same orange ammo box on my B2601; as far as hammer I went to HF and bought the stubby 2 lb sledge hammer. It's been used the most of my tools. I also keep a small container of various tractor pins/clips.
@deannelson9301 I definitely need to keep some pins in there. Thank you! My most used tools are the screw driver and pliers BUT, I recently added a long landscape spike to turn the top link. 🤠👍
Wow, exactly what I did to my BX2380, bolted a small tool box where the slow moving vehicle sign goes. Good job/idea to both of us haha.
Great video as usual.
Thank you!!! Yeah, not an original idea (like the magnets, darn it) but it worked out nicely 👌 I'll probably keep over-thinking it, lol 😆👍
Cool I didn't think about putting my tool box there! I don't drive my tractor down the road anyway lol!
I was apprehensive about removing the sign but I also don't drive my tractor down the road. It'll work just fine there... until I change my mind, lol
If'n it's a hot day & your doing something close to where your tools would normally be you can leave the tools in the tool shed & throw an ice pack & a six pack in the box !👍👍🍺🍺🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome! ... now I want to find out how many 🍺 it will hold 🤔 🤠👍
great job as always Sam.
Thank you very much! So happy you enjoyed it 😁👍
Enjoyed the oopsies as well as the project! 2,000 subs geez! Congrats!
Thank you! I think the "oopsies" are important 👍 glad you liked them 😁
Congratulations on 2k subscribers Sam. Looking forward to the next project you will be taking on.
Thank you!!! I'm really excited to be starting something new. Lots of good content in the works 😁👍
Don't want to say it but, tractors bump, drop, bounce, shake, twist in daily use, washers not enough area, that plastic will vibrate, crack and break. Need a larger area to take up stress inside and outside of box, maybe even below bottom. Seen too many "factory" boxes break off going across field. Put two channels of "super strut", spaced 4" apart, between rops ( top front, bottom toward rear) place box on top of bottom strut and against top strut, bolt in place. This also leaves additional area on strut to place other items needed (rear work / warning light light, fire extinguisher, etc). Have strut stick out wider of rops to put extra forward lights if have front loader. Possibilities!
Great ideas! Thank you. I did end up putting a piece of 1/4" plywood inside to strengthen it. It's holding up very well 🤠👍
You still have room in that tool box for some bandaids, not that anyone ever needs them when working.
That would be a good thing to have. Maybe some gauze and duct tape? The tape would be dual purpose 😁👍
Congrats on 2k!
Thank you!!! It really means a lot 😁👍
How about mounting a metal toolbox on the front end? The bucket clears by a foot & you turn to wide to hit anything when the arms are removed.
That's a very good idea 💡 🤠👍
Tire Pressure Gauge and a cheap 12V tire compressor to go along with the fix-a-flat.
Great ideas. I do take both of those with me when I go off property. For the tractor and the truck/trailer 🤠👍
I have been thinking of putting a small tool box someplace on my tractor. I'll have to look at the SMV bracket as a possible location, thanks for the idea. I got a metal one since it gets far too cold in the winters in my area, I would be afraid of a plastic one cracking on me. Congrats on the 2k subs!
Thank you very much!!! Now I'm worried about the plastic getting brittle 🤔 well, it'll work until it doesn't, lol. I don't drive on the road so I don't really need the smv sign, but I really wish the magnets would have worked.
I have a Kabota LX3520 with a cab. I’d appreciate any ideas for a tool box for a tractor with a cab. So far the Harbor Freight bucket with a top is what I came up with. (With the Nylon bucket belt). Any other ideas appreciated. Thanks for an informative video. Even with the magnet mistake is extremely helpful to me. Thanks!
@frankrubino1883 Thank you! Glad I could help. Your tractor is my dream machine. Maybe even the 4020. Definitely with a cab. If I imagine tools in a cab, I immediately picture a soft tool case with pockets. Maybe even something that rolls up. Then it can be hung or tucked somewhere. Another idea (just spitballing here) would be a small piece of 4" pvc to tuck the tool roll into. Let me know what you come up with! 🤠👍
Cool idea! My BX didn't come with the SMV sign and I won't be driving it down the road ever, so that makes sense. I am enjoying your channel. Question: why is your mower discharge bungeed open?
Thank you! I bungee the chute to keep it out of the way and to help spread the clippings more evenly. 😁👍
So, what did you do with the SMV sign that you took off?
Great question. I'm still looking for an alternative location for it or even possibly a different location for the tool box. I don't drive my tractor on the road so it's not 100% necessary. Always thinking 🤔
@samsdoinstuff Ah, well I do occasionally drive mine on a state route, necessary to get to some of the fields of the farm, so I need that SMV sign. I also added a programmable magnetic mount amber colored flashing light to the roll bar! Just feel it might be a little safer! Thanks!
