What should I expect to pay for used black belly steps to put on my 7050? Is there a better option like K&M steps? How do they compare, to those of you that have had both? Thanks ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |

| Don't know if good or not but gave $100 for one I put on 7060. I know others I've asked were much higher but one outfit in particular is pretty pricey. |

Not sure if you can do fab work, I made steps for my 7040 and 7050.. I did take the black belly set off my 7045 to copy when making the others. Haven't got them on yet but they are so much nicer.

May I "assume" you have a local welding shop in your neighborhood?? Give them some "specs" on what your looking for and you might be pleasantly surprised on the $$/quality  JMO

| K & M never used to be as good as factory black belly steps. Don't know about today. They were better than the maroon chassis steps. |

| I have a 7040 that someone welded up a set of steps for. Crude, but with 3 steps it ain't bad. My beef with it is they are not evenly spaced. |

For $100 or less just go to a wrecker and get the steps. This is my 7050:  ------------- 405, 7000, 7050, 8050, 8070, L3, 2300 & 2600 disk |

| Some complained early on that they caught a lot of mud. But, after using them awhile, most decided they were functional enough to deserve a cleaning once in a while. The change to the smaller/flatter steering wheel was done at the same time and made a huge difference in getting in and out of the command center. |

Just had recent back and hip surgery so was looking for something to make it easier to get into the tractor. I think for a $100 or so the used black belly steps would be the way to go. I think it might be cheaper than buying the metal and building a set. ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |

I don't believe I have ever paid more than $125 for a fair set of 70xx black belly steps, and if memory serves that price came with the bracket underneath. ------------- Still in use: HD7 WC C CA WD 2-WD45 WD45LP WD45D D14 3-D17 D17LP 2-D19D D19LP 190XTD 190XTLP 720 D21 220 7020 7030 7040 7045 3-7060 Projects: 3-U UC 2-G 2-B 2-C CA 7-WC RC WDLP WF D14 D21 210 7045 N7 |
