Installed Kubota Winch. Installed Datsun Alternator. Burned My Hand.

I got a new one ton ATV winch from Harbor Freight for super cheap, and it's going on the tractor as a multi-purpose pulling out stuck stuff tool.  It's not real often that the tractor gets stuck anywhere, but it's happened once or twice and only in the most inconvenient of places so a winch will be worthwhile, I think.  I figure it'll mostly get used for ripping stuff out of the ground and dragging things around though, considering the little orange monster does a fair bit of that anyways, this'll just give me another means to that end.
Mockup of where stuff is gonna go, more or less.
More stuff after jump break

"Temporary" Fixes & Tractors.

Don't put fencing flat on the ground and leave it there.
Not in the Willamette valley.

I don't care if it's to keep the dogs from digging in the septic tank, and it'll only be there for a couple days, cause a couple months later it's gonna be full of grass and utterly immovable.  That's where tractors come in.  Most people don't have a tractor, these people are fools.  Tractors are like a diesel powered swiss army knife.... now if only I had a backhoe attachment......

Mighty steed of thunder.
This used to be straight.  It's lucky it's in one piece.
