Only thing that might be an issue is getting to the pto. But I don't believe the tool box is big enough to really get in the way.I'm liking the tool box on the left side. Seems to make sense do to the fact you get on & off on the left so your tools and what ever are right there!
Got those casters at TSC in Canada. Not sure if the us TSC stores are the same as ours. Princess auto also had a good selection. But no green ones. :mocking:Sawdust,
I like your casters. I was looking for similar casters to make the same modification. Can you tell us where you found them?

I thought the same thing. Then I remembered that last weekend I hit the ground (not hard) with the ballast box even with it in the full up position. I won't be putting anything on the bottom or back of my ballast box that I'll lose ground clearance from.
Initially I loved the casters and planned to incorporate them on my ballast box. Then I remembered I live in Florida ( lots of sand ) and use my tractor in some thick woods where brush could snag the wheels. I am back to using a piano mover
Agreed, my ballast box hits the ground periodically and I still don't how that happens when it all the way up like that. I will be the first admit that I am working my tractor hard and taking it into rough spots.Not to detract from Sawdust's idea, but I think permanent castor's are a bad idea. There are just two many times that my BB has dragged the ground while working or loading in the trailer, or like mentioned snagging brush. My BB is filled with concrete so attaching and/or replacing one would be a problem also. With that said, I have a steel dolly that I lower mine onto to move it around.
May be a new product idea for me or Chris at Artillian:dunno::think:
Mine too! :good2:My box will be filled with bricks, so will be no trouble to remove if needed.
