(copied from my post on Tractor talk)

Got the lights up & running on the 1855 now. They always worked, but I mounted some fuel tank fenders on now and they had some extra holes for lights in the front (originally off a 50 series would be my guess)

I kept the original circuit, then added a second one for the 4 extra lights I mounted. I added 2 rear worklights 2 years ago and ran them off the original switch, but after opengin up the dash I found the power supply wire was melting it's plastic conection because it was too high of a load.

I used a new 3 position push-pull switch for an Oliver 1600, and made it so all the way out was all 4 lights are on, and the middle was just the rear work lights (for if I only want to use the back lights for stationary work)

I made all new harnesses in the fenders and a new harness for the new circuit out of the dash, all wrapped in electrical tape and the ends of the tape covered in heat shrink to keep it form coming undone. I also used heat shrink over all the connectors, and used the spade connectors w/ the plastic that covers the connection. I replaced one flasher that got swiped off by a tree branch last year opening up a corn feild (watch me do it again this year) and fixed the tailight that didn't want to work on the original fender.

Wow, that looks nice. It looks like you've made your ROPS canopy to fold, is that correct?

Nope- doesn't fold. I think what you're seeing is the braces for the canopy that clamp onto the uprights.

Fenders look good. Were you able to mount the tanks flat on the axle or did you need to make an adaptor. Just wondering how you got the canopy & tanks to fit on the axle.

The tanks mount on top of the pads for the ROPs, no problems. I originally had 1 up there on top of the original riser for the other fender, but those tanks were just too high then. Not much clearance this way either, but atleast I can see over the side now.

The grab handle will make it a lot better. I'm trying to send you a picture of the steps I made for my 1850, but am having trouble getting Photobucket to work. See if this works. Chris
