Sounds like a fun project to do together!! I loved working in the shop with my dad as a kid! What size tires are you going to run? How far did you move the rear axle, if at all?

Looks good. Nice shop, tracked skidsteer and backhoe should come in handy. I used my kubota with loader for moving the 105 bed around, you definitely have a nice set up. Hope to see you at RC this fall.
