Karlinpa has a point about the strength of the tractor's cas frame at the tube from the clutch to the trans, there is anothe concern and that is the engine is a stressed member, and attached to the front steering casting/bolster with bolts into the block. Many B and C SC tractors have been snapped just from hitting an obstacle with no loader. I am in favor of plate or channel on each side from the bolster to the axle "trumpet to rear housing. Your loader looks bullet proof and is admirable, but it could be a contributing factor to structural (fatal to the tractor) breakage. tapping into the open center system is pretty easy. all it takes is a new valve placed before or after the existing valve block. Remember that the use of more than one control lever at a time results in profound unplanned motion. An alternate solution might be to use an engine driven second pump to add capacity. The real issue is getting strength into the structure. Loading the bucket with snow, fine, putting rocks or soil in it stresses cast iron. Iron casting as you know are near zero in flexure. I like the whole rig. welcome to YT. Jim

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
