 Topic: G extension?
Posted: 20 Feb 2011 at 6:22pm |

Hey is there anyone that sells a G extender? I've seen a 6" extension put in between the front and rear parts of the tractor. I could really use the leg room :) If not I know I could it, just takes time...
Thanks
Jonathan

Well, you could always give me your G if you're tired of your legs cramping up.hahaha
Seriously,. find a local fab shop,have them cut a section of thick walled square tubing(stuff lamp posts are made from), drill 8 holes ,prime, paint, enjoy....
My local guy would do it for nothing,likes 'weird' challenges...
Wish I had your problem....sigh..

lol that actually looks pretty easy, looks like 10" square tubing with a bottom welded on (judging by the ice on the bottom) I was thinking of taking two plates and welding a tube between them, but this looks way faster, and gives you a place to store junk :)
Thanks!

I'd leave a couple of slots in the bottom to let the water out ! or... fab up a hinged locakbable top as well to keep the rain out. Big enough 'tool box to fit gloves, wrench, spark plug, etc.
Hmm.. wonder if there's a market for it ?
Then again, I'd need a G for the R&D ......

I just ordered the steel for 2 of them for my G's I'll see what it costs, plus the time to weld and drill holes.. I'm not going to bother with a locking top, or a top at all for that matter, these things shouldn't be out in the rain anyway ;) though you should always have a place to let the water out (just in case)
