Congrats Mitch !!! You did it! Way to go !!! You passed the 1000 mark !
Thanks 👍 Gary I appreciate it!!!😁👍🚜💨💡
Nice mods especially the hooks on the pallet forks, I think I’ll do the same 👍🏻, the winch in the back is also a good one, thanks for sharing👍🏻
Thanks for watching my video I am a newbie tractor owner and loving it. The ideas are endless. That winch is hopefully helpful l forgot to say in the video that I am going to put the ballast box on the ground for a anchor next time I pull on a tree.
That ballast box is genius! Nice job, I am jealous.
Got a new idea for the ballast box coming soon
After 60 tractor vids , I thought I'd seen it all but you have four ideas that are new to me, good video, thanks for taking the time to share.
( Would like to see a 1st aid kit and fire extinguisher added on though)
Thanks for checking out the video. And good idea about first aid kit and fire extinguisher I will put it on the list. 😁👍
I let a root get under my Kubota L2501 when I was aggressively using my grapple on my front lift and it just happened to spear my hydraulic pump and fittings! The tree got the best of me that day! $2500 dollars later, it was fixed. Your model of Kubota has skid plates available but I have seen none for the L series. Another project I have in mind.
I have one on my list of projects. A skid plate is a most have for working around branches. Thanks for sharing your experience and motivating me to move it up on my list. 😁👍🚜💨🍳
Great ideas, I'm a newbie with a 2601 also. Those lights are killer!
Got them on amazon. The brand is Ambother 9 inch 360watts. But I just looked them up and they are currently unavailable. I love my B2601 it is the perfect machine for me. Thanks for subscribing.
Out of the(cement) box thinking! Perfect!
Yep I just made it out of scrap but still use it a lot. Thanks for checking it out 😁👍🚜💨🍳
Классный аппарат мечта для многих даже с проржавевшими и крыльями.
The mirrors are my favourite. I need to make something like that for my BX for when I’m brush hogging. Love the channel and new subscriber! Found you from @360Alaskanlife cheers, Mike
Thanks for subscribing Mike 😁 Dana @360Alaskanlife is a great channel. I originally was going to choose one and make the other one the same but I like both for different angles so they are still just like the video. Have a Happy Thanksgiving 😁👍🚜💨🦃🍽🍁
Thanks for showing us your modifications, they look great and I think you have covered all bases
Thanks Joseph! 😁👍I have lots more mods but no time. One day I will get some time to make another mods video. Thanks for checking out the video.😁👍🚜💨🍳
B2601 owner here also. I like the chain hooks idea on the forks. Poor mans grapple in the making. I subbed. 👍
Thank you for subscribing. I really appreciate your comment. I got tired of rapping the chain around the pallet fork frame or going back for the bucket.
I love the way your brain works man. Thank you for this.
Thanks I have lots of ideas in other videos too😁thanks for checking out the video 🚜💨🍳
Very interesting ballast box!!👌
Thanks just a few ideas I had to put out there😵💫😂Thanks for checking out the video ☀️😁👍
Thank you for subscribing I really appreciate it 😁👍
I like your videos and your stuff so why not suscribe and encourage your channel! I know that there is a lot of work under it. Me and my wife are building our house next year and I'm looking to buy a B2601 even if we won't have a big land! I'll build landscape, blow snow, mow grass and practice with tractor while learning so eventually when I'll get older I'll be able to buy a bigger land and do some retirement projet with family! :)
@@Wildboyz1987 That sounds like a good plan and perfect timing I hear wood prices will be starting to come down this fall. I got my finger crossed 🤞 see you on the next one 😁👍
@@MJADoingStuff Thanks!!😁 yep finger crossed on that wood price🤞Alright see ya next time!😀
Will be picking up my B2601 next Friday LW, I have been searching videos of everything you can possibly do to the B but your counter weight box ranks at the top of projects I can hardly wait to get started on. I’ve got the 4’ bush hog and 60” grapple coming in the deal. Definitely be checking out your other videos, thank you sir!!!
Congratulations on the B2601👍 and grapple to start out sweet!!! I wish I got the grapple in the beginning but it was not in the cards. I think your going to enjoy the tractor it is a great size in my opinion have a great day 🚜💨💡😁👍
1. I like the mods!
2. I need more chain hooks everywhere too.
3. The ballast box is awesome. I had a carry all with a couple of 2" receivers the I used to slide a 12k lb winch in and serve as a forestry winch. Unfortunately, hard long pulls with an electric winch and you get a lot of heat. I haven't used it since I got a bigger tractor and built a bigger carry all, so my deep cycle battery is probably dead. I was thinking about building my own forestry winch, but I really don't think I would use it as much now that I have a 10k lb tractor vs the 3500 lb one I was using.
4. The more experience I get on tractors, the more I think a B series would be EXTREMELY handy size between yard duties and trail maintenance. I'm going to be checking out more of your videos for sure!
Thanks for checking out the video. I hope you like our other projects. Also Thank you for subscribing 🚜💨💡😁👍
I really like the ballast box set up !
Thanks 👍 it doesn’t look very pretty but it works good. I made a video of us using it. It is the Making mistakes video. Thanks for leaving a comment. Have a great Year 😁👍🚜💨🍻
Love the mirrors
Thanks 👍 they look funny but work good 😁👍
Nice machinery! Keep on uploading 😀
Thanks for watching can’t wait for spring I am gearing up! Lots to do.👍🍻
Nice mods. I could've used that winch a dozen times. you got me thinking.
Thanks I haven’t got a chance to test it out and I am thinking it needs a plate at the bottom to dig in when I make a pull. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I appreciate you taking the time.
Love the inventive mods. Good work.
Thanks if you like Mod your in the right place😁👍Thanks for checking out the video 🚜💨🍳
You have that set up pretty nicely.
Thanks got more ideas but going to save them for winter 🥶 when I am stuck inside right now it’s time test out stuff 👍
Very beautiful friend and nice to see you my dear friend big like
Thanks for checking out the video ☀️😁👍
That is a really good idea what you have done with your mirror mounts.
Thanks I like using stuff that I have as much as possible to save money for more attachments 😁👍
Ballast box is original and great idea!
Thanks it was fun to make too wish I made a video on it have a good weekend 👍😁🍻
Also, dude you might kinsider adding a harbor freight solar panel charger.
Great vid. Thank you for these ideas!
That’s a good idea 😁I might be able to put it on top of the lights on the ROP’s
@@MJADoingStuff hella. I want to build a folding kanopy on mine. Like have it fold in 3 rektangles. That way I'd always have juice for tunes without tapping the main starter battery. Like have sekondary solar battery.
🤘
Thanks Jeff😁👍 Thanks for checking out the video 🚜💨🍳
Should make a couple spades that will dig in ground to keep from dragging tractor backwards while winching
That sounds like a good idea 💡 I was also thinking the winch might be to close to the ground. Can’t wait for spring to try it out. Thanks for watching and for your idea 👍
nice mods, i will have my B26001 in August...I'll have to keep these in mind. Now i need a welder :)
Congratulations on your b2601! One of the best purchases I ever made next to my welder got my welder the Hobart brand sometime between 1993 and 95 has never let me down it is the transformer type heavy as heck. Thanks for watching the video 😁👍
@@MJADoingStuff thanks for putting it up.
+1 subscriber (Kioti CK3510 Cab owner) nice mods!
Thanks👍 it was one of my early videos sorry it took forever!😂 Thanks for checking out the video and subscribing. Have a great day!!!👨🏻🏭🚜💨💡
Love your ballast box and what you did with it. Did you use a plasma cutter to cut the metal work from your flail mower to make the ballast box? You’re the only one that I have seen who has a battery mount spot for a car battery on a ballast box. Colleen said she loves your ingenuity. These videos are fun.
Thanks 👍 I did not have the plasma cutter then I used a porta band saw. All I can say is now that I got a plasma cutter It has changed how I think of different ideas. I feel more free to make what I want with less limitations. I used a separate battery so I don’t stress the tractors electrical system😁plus extra ballast win win😁👍🚜💨💡
You might consider coming back on your ballast box and welding you a blade that can dig into the ground ground level if the winch works out for skidding. Great job on the box!
Thanks for the great idea 💡 I think that will work better.😁👍🚜💨🍳
I have that problem with my hay spear. Doesn't level at the same spot that the loader bucket does. Good job on the video.
Every company just makes attachments different I guess. Got lots of different color tape so I got it covered 😁👍 thanks for checking it out and leaving a comment 🍻
If you Mount the saw holder on other side, the saw motor would be more behind the seat and better protected
Very true I will have to try that. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍
Looks like you got your B2601 at Olson’s too! I live about 12 miles NW of North Branch. You’ve done some very nice work to your tractor. How’s the level of vibration on your mirrors? I still have to figure out a mirror for mine. Great video, thanks for posting!
Yep 👍 got it from Mark he is a good guy. I live SW about 25 minutes away. Thanks I got to start painting some orange on my mods so they look more professional. The mirrors only vibrates at low rpm so I just adjust rpm as needed. Thanks for watching and commenting.
B2601 owner also , you have some nice mods :) Will you do a quick video on light switch location ? It looks like you pulled power from under passenger fender. Thanks :)
I put the switch in the tray on the right side. Did it last year so I will look at it tomorrow.

Great video - did you make the saw scabbard or where did you source it from?
Thanks 👍 I did make saw scabbard😁 I used a piece of 3”inch SCH 40 PVC I should do a video on it 🤔 thanks for checking out the video have a great day 🚜💨💡😁👍
Thanks for sharing, one of the better ballast box designs I've seen! Do you have dimensions for it in any of your videos or comment sections? I really like your bucket level indicator too! I'm looking forward to checking out a few more of your videos and will be a new subscriber as soon as I post this message.

24 inches wide, 16 inches depth, 26 inches high plus 4 inch legs so 30 inch total high.
If I made it again I would find the measurements of a quick hitch for the 3 point connection so it would be Quick hitch compatible👍 Good works Tractor has a Quick hitch that uses standard class 1 pins no need for bushings. Hope that helps.
@@MJADoingStuff sorry, I just had the opportunity to review some of the comments and realized that you have had to answer the dimensions question several times 🙄... well, still one of the best designs I've seen yet! I've thought about putting casters on mine. At this point I'm not considering a quick hitch so casters would help with positioning it but I should make the mounts the same dimensions as my box blade and rotary cutter, just in case...
Dom
@@domenicmaiani3795 I use a furniture dolly but your casters is a good idea 💡👍
What are you using for those chainsaw slips the white plastic,they seem perfect
I used 3in PVC😁 I made a video on how to make a chainsaw holder if you want to see me make one. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳
Flood lights are great. How did you connect them ?
You can check out my video on installing the lights and It has some information in the comment on that video too thanks for your comment I appreciate it. 😁👍
Very nice. I made a video called "1025R adding hooks and hangers". You might find that interesting. 🚜
Thanks 😁I will have to check that out Have a great weekend🚜💨🍳
The only mod ive done to mine is adding a stereo, LED lights and ammo kans on the ROPS.
Sounds like your on your way already 😁👍🚜💨🍳
What are the dimensions of the ballast box if you dont mind? That's a great idea and looks awesome.

It sure did. Thanks again.
Is that a tiller or a flail mower in your intro picture? I'm interested in a flail mower from that same company and hoped you would do a review and offer tips. Also, my B2601 came from Olson's too (I bought a 2018 used) so our tractors are kind of siblings.
It is a Betsco flail mower model EFGC125 it works really good on the B2601. Very heavy duty unit not to heavy for the tractor. I can do a 1 year review video this summer but I would get it before they are back ordered seems like attachments inventory is becoming a problem for some company’s Joe Soslick has the same mower and B2601. I watched his CZcams video on it before I bought. Hope that helps.👍🍻
@@MJADoingStuff Did you get the grass blades or brush hammers? I'm looking at that mower and have hunting land similar to yours except more popple and alder brush. My tractor came with a land pride 48 inch rotary mower that I'm going to sell because it looks like a flail more can handle larger brush and is more compact for mowing and trailer loading.
@@miscemail7363 I got the 20oz hammer blades 48 inches cut. The thing I do is cut the trails with brush cutter blade then will chip the trees with the WC68 wood chipper. I then come back with the flail to cut the stumps flush to the ground. I have used the flail mower by itself but have to go back over for final cut and mulch it smaller. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@MJADoingStuff Did you have to cut the PTO shaft length down for your mower? And do you use it with normal 3 point hook up? or convert the mower to use a quick hitch?
@@miscemail7363 I use it with the stock 3 point set up but just got the pat’s easy connect so got to see how it works out yet. I did have to cut the PTO shaft but you should measure yours too make sure. Have a great weekend ☀️😁👍
how did you make the chain saw holder?
Best way is to show you😁if you go to my channel you can watch the video I made on how to make it 😁 thank you for checking out the video 🚜💨🍳
Yout mirror sticks out farther than your saw would.
That is true but I take them off when I go into the woods. Thanks for watching 😁👍🚜💨☀️
11:01. If you are pulling tree wouldn't it make more sense to have it higher so the trees don't dig into the ground? I wonder how this worked out. haha.
Yep I used it and your right about higher is better. It works better pulling trees over😂 Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳
@@MJADoingStuff hahaha. Got ya. I'll keep that in mind for future reference. Thank you. I'm building a debris fork from a 1/2 inch thick quick connect plate and some #8(1") rebar soon. I'll probably post it here. Haha.
@@Agustin-jo8mv Sweet that sounds like a cool project!!!😁👍
Can you add any more junk on a tractor
Sure can 😂👍 check out my other videos 😁👍🚜💨🍳
