| Just wondering where you fellas put your sign , if you have one ? My seat base ( left of the seat ) has a couple 1/4" holes that I might could use . I sometimes drive around the neighborhood and don't wanna get hit . THANKS !! |

In my opinion, if they can't see an Orange tractor, they won't see the sign! , but the law is the law. Tracy ------------- No greater gift than healthy grandkids! |

| You're exactly right Tracy . I just wanna try to play it as safe as I can . Be my luck I'd get fined for not having the sign . Thanks |

Make a bracket that uses existing holes. Save your sheet metal Those two holes you mentioned will work fine.Tracy ------------- No greater gift than healthy grandkids! |

I have added this adapter to my 3 point hitch fastened to the top link along with the SMV sign.

A sign tied to the seat suspension with a piece of baler twine is what I use. Easy to put on, easy to take off. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

The federal law that authorizes the use of the SMV sign on vehicles travelling under 25 MPH on public roads requires that it be mounted 4'to 6' from the ground on the rear of said vehicle. This has been law since the early 70s. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |
