I was wondering if anyone out there has ever successfully attached a braket for weights on the front end of a TEA20 etc.....I'm sure I can install the bracket but I'm not sure if the front end can handle the added stress.

I made a bracket for under the TO-30 Ferguson. The Axle mount has 3 drain(?)1/2 inch holes in the bottom. I used these holes to mount a 6 inch Chanel Iron Mount with 2 recever hitch boxes welded on the ends to slip my bumper into. One bumper was made out of just chanel steel the other one was chanel steel with a section of 6 inch bar stock weighing 200 lbs. Depending on the needs I could slip in what ever one I needed easily. Never had a problem with the set up and it was not hanging off the Pivot Pin on the axles moving around. Picture shows it under the tractor mounted. Mark H.

Can the hood still open....I'm not sure about the TO-30 but the TEA20's hood folds out.

Yes the Hood still folds forward. When you make the bumper part just open the hood and measure first then make the bumper. Mark H.

Looks very professional.
Whilst the front end was off my TE20 I made provision for 4 x 5/8 bolts in the area you've mounted yours with a similar project in mind, but as yet have progressed no further.
I was concerned about flexing without reinforcement fore or aft of the axle pivot box.
Seems from your photo that you have supports running back, but I can't see properly from angle photo is taken.
Could you advise if your setup has rear supports?
Thanks,

No mind did not have rear suports but it would be real easy to run a couple back to the bell housing area if you wanted to. I will see if I still have some more pictures of it saved. Mark H.

I think the 6" chanel steel was 12 inches wide but not sure now. Mark H.

Here is a side view of it. The Bolts hold the bumper in and you can make a lighter one for a regular bumper. Mark H.
