Yeah, that is what I plan to do. I just keep thinking I want to also brace the frame rails side to side, right at the area where the front of the diff attaches? A cross brace? If that makes sense?
I may be over thinking it, I usually do.
I have been focusing my time / resources on getting it where it will start without having to jump it of off my truck. New ignition switch / relay / glow plugs and the solenoid upgrade hopefullty will put that issue to bed.
Thanks.

I put a set on my 1782 and it feels like a different tractor... stiffens the whole frame tremendously.. you can't feel it twisting anymore and my front mounts weren't even broken!
Nice tractor and nice work!!  |
Thanks!
Hopefully I will get a few minutes to work on it this afternoon. I would like to finish up wiring the solenoid upgrade for the glow plugs.
My 782 has the cat 0 3 pt rear, I plan to switch that to the smoker. Then put the tins pan back on.
Resisting the urge to order some paint and repaint all the tins.
It's a nice tractor, be cool to have it all repainted and shiny!
