I finally had some time to start, finish and test out all of the mods that have been building up all winter. Started out with the hydrosplus stage 3 kit and 120r upgraded lift cylinders and WOW!!! what a huge difference. Paired that with Ken’s bolt on hooks gauge and turned the pressure up to about 2600psi. This little 1025r feels like a 3 series. Next on the list was to change out the stock John Deere tool box with a Milwaukee pack out box. Something that I chould be able to pull off and take with me, need be. Now that I added the tool box the tail light don’t fit anymore. So I removed the stock tail lights and added 2 sets of amber side markers, front and rear and a set of running, brake lights in the rear. Next order of business was to fill the holes left by the factory lights. Grabbed some end caps from Lowe’s and popped them right in. Ordered some dock bumpers from McMaster Carr to make some street pads for the outriggers. 3d printed some magnetic mirror mounts for the loader arms. Had some extra magnets so I put some on quickfist mounts and now I have a handy shovel holder. All and all pretty productive weekend
