Here is the pics of bumper project thus far. It is for D15-D17 tractor. Still lacks vertical uprights and inside gusset pieces, but should give an idea of looks.I will be making a scaled down version for D10-D12 and CA also. What do you think.

Tracy - VERY NICE! Symmetry and attention to detail, I like it a lot. Very nice professional looking bumper you've got there. What's the material thickness your using? Specifically the tractor splitting stand. That 3/8" or 1/2"?

Jeff, Bumpers are 1/4'' thick material on formed pieces,1/2'' thick on attaching brackets. The splitting stands are 2x 4 x1/4 wall tubing, 2x3x1/2( I think) odd leg angle,1/4 x2 angle braces. Hole spacing at bottom allows for slotting and adjustment. Holes at top work out for two hole for any of the tractors it fits. Cast steel casters are welded on, uprights are adjustable on tubing.I have another started to hold rear half of tractor. HTH Tracy Martin
