Hi. Weld a 2' pipe(or longer) with the diameter just larger than the diameter of the umbrella pipe to a flat plate. Cut a hole in it for a 5/16" or 3/8" bolt to fit through about 2 inches from the top. Weld the matching nut over the hole to make a set screw style clamp/holder. Match drill/cut holes in the flat plate to the left tractor frame between the clutch pedal and tool box. Mount the plate, the umbrella, and tighten down the set "bolt".

Don shows his attached to the fender, Ours were a pipe clamped to the steering post upright. Since our umbrella did not have bent pole but rather just a straight pole, it didn't need the set screw... an am sure it would work for the bent ones too. The pipe mount also doubled as a stick holder for using around the old 33 corn picker to help the occasional plugs to go through, be it was in the troufs with a stalk stuck retarding the corn going through or up in the rolls.

Nice pics Don. What stands out to me is that your various rear tires have different angles of the ag chevrons. Get any sort of fun traction oddities with that across your fleet?

I have the mismatch tires on the wd45 with corn planter after the left side gave-up and that long bar/short bar got the call to duty, but it will get changed this fall. the barn is 16' high and 60' wide x 80' long and it's full now.

I got the one on the right from Rick and the left one wife to be painted a new John Deere knock-off umbrella from the local farm store, she has repainted a lot of them.

I bought this off Ebay for $15. It was described as a WD Umbrella mount. It cleaned up nicely but I cannot figure out how/where it mounts. Any ideas?

Without going out and measuring the bolt spacing, I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and say maybe on the fender mounting bolts. Just guessing by looking at the angle of the mounting bracket.

2nd on the left side toe plate. It's not the stiffest bracket out there.
