It gets more use than I thought it would when I got it and recently I've thought it will be good to combine it with the bandit winch to shift big chunks of brash or timber without it digging into lawns or getting covered in mud.
I'd hate to think how many times we have decided not to bother taking it as it's a pain to transport then wished we had it, but now it rides for free and is there when needed.

It looks the ideal set up how you have it.  I like the idea of the trolley, but not the idea of another bit of kit to pack every day.  Having it mounted like you do is perfect.

Workshop day for me today ... .trying to finish my Front linkage on my old Brown . .front weights not a option has ridiculous prices and not practical. 

This old Farm Force will work a treat and will be able to put all my crap in front Instead of the cab .£150 Was a bargain .

Still a lot to do to finish it.

Can see by your front tires why you need it, a little on the. Light side

They were never the heaviest on the front end, when I was a apprentice we had a 1490 4x4 on the estate as a winch tractor, so I learned to steer on the brakes very quickly.

Twin stemmed ash by a river, the grapple is making this job too easy!

 

Grab it, pull it up to the chipper, then loading tonnes of wood in minutes.
