The lower arm is bolted to where the stabilizer legs you fold out on FEL removal are usually pinned to. The rear bolt with lock simply takes the slop out of the lower arm by pushing the rear down and the arm front up against the loader arm.

This is the second house I have built. I just kept drawing different designs until I had one my wife and I liked. I did everything but the foundation, brickwork, plumbing and heating.

The garage is my present shop and is filled with my projects (dubbed junk by the wife). Three out of four sliding glass window panels are visible. They let in tons of light for working.

Interests:
Hunting, fishing, motorcycles, tractors, old cars.
Equipment:
1942 Ford 9N. My dad had to buy it together with his brother during the war because of restrictions. and 2003 Kubota L3130, FEL and backhoe. 3pt implements (two bottom plow, back blade, scoop). Circular sawmill, purchased at auction last summer.

Heated 24x32 shop with essential autobody equipment (compressor, grinder, DA and straight line sanders, paint gun, wire feed welder)

Two Jonsereds chainsaws purchased (1980 and 2002).

1970 AMC Mark Donohue Javelin, 1964 Chevy 1 ton flatbed 350, 1957 Chevy 3/4 ton flatbed 283, 1929 Ford model A w/350 Olds (project).
Property:
90 acres, 1/2 wooded with trout ponds. I was born in the house on this farm (1954) so this land is really part of me. The ponds were commercial until 1985 and since then the beavers have dammed the outlet causing high water levels and stagnation. I hope to use the backhoe to remove the dam whenever the beavers rebuild so that I can get the water back to the condition needed for trout.
