Re: (ET) Mini front/rear end loader

[steves <ssawtelle erols com>]

I built a bucket for mine that I have attached to the rear of the 
tractor. I'm still experimenting with the mount and lift. Right now I 
use part of my sleeve hitch adapter and a custom stab bracket that 
mounts one of those cheap winches. It works, but the winch is too low. 
Another project I need to get back to. I was worried about mounting it 
on the front due to weight considerations ( mostly will be moving gravel 
with it).

Anyway, when I made the bucket, I got parts cut out for two. So if you 
are interested in a basic bucket you can customize let me know. It's not 
unlike a Johny Bucket in size.
