Look up life essentials. I have two seat lifts made by them. One for my tractor and one on my truck. But they do make a platform lift for like what your saying

it's my mowing tractor (more shredding...like Eldon does) and I just gots a sign puts on my industrial ground in town that the grass has exceeded the height limits of the city....meaning I gots a few days to mow it, or they will and then send me a bill that costs 10 times what it usually would....the city hoping to teach people a lesson? ****that! plus I gotta mow my aronia plot too! one other year the city posted a sign out there, they were real snotty when they couldn't find their sign after that! and kinda got excited when I posted a complaint in the local paper about the city going around putting these signs up on properties, and they (the city) couldn't even control the noxious weeds (that someone planted) on city property! LMAO I gots high fives all over town for weeks after that!

Maybe you could make this work. 500 lbs capacity, lifts from ground level to 36 inches I think. Has a wired remote but needs a power cable. I tried to talk one of mu other brothers into mounting it on his log splitter but his oldest son is back living at home and likes splittin wood. My brother used it to put his Hover-round in the back of his truck.

how is that mounted? in the receiver hitch?

Yep. Fold the tailgate down and it will lift up a bit past the tailgate. 2 pins pull out and the platform rotates vertical. It also has two "out-riggers(one missing the "foot") that are pinned up , prolly not necessary for a manlift.

everytime I see anything to do with a manlift, I think of the utube video of the cop pulling a drunk over on a manlift, and laugh my butt off

Monday when I started to get on tractor, I passed out, she called 911 and I'm still in this hospital. A lift would have had me higher up to fall.lol MACK

Mike Noonan in Marinette Wi makes steps for most any tractor his phone number is 715-732-2994 or 715-701-1138 I hope this helps shameless, I figured I needed to come up with some help before you kill yourself trying to get on a tractor.

| Ya, the clown has a whole series of the same thing, actually gets pretty foul in some of them, some pretty elaborate, but I still find this one funny even though I am pretty sure these are fake

When I first got hurt I used a sling hooked to the forks of a skid steer and then they rolled the D-17 under me. Was scary looking lol. I don't know how to look back and find old posts but there's pictures of my 6080 with the seat lift on it someplace on the forum.

I saw a Deere 4010 at a sale a few years ago, and it had something like that. Several wide steps that were inclined, not straight up like a ladder. Even had a sturdy handrail! Sure was easy getting on and off.

Sorry to hear that Dale. I know there was somebody building something like you're talking about, pretty sure I saw it in Successful Farming. IIRC the user was able to stand with crutches on a small platform that raised him up to the door of the cab. A less expensive alternative might be a set of concrete steps with a hand rail that you pulled the tractor up to.

Saturday morning, may get our after noon if blood pressure stays stable. Hope your skinned and bruised legs are doing better. Friend of mine shot in Vietnam has JD and IH with lifts. Seat with 12v hoist lifts to seat level then rotates to tractor seat. MACK
