I read this site almost every nite, but never can contribute anything. Too inexperienced.
Just gonna share a couple things I did to my 300 u that may give someone ideas. I have leg trouble and made a step to get on it. Just took two pieces of 1 1/2" X 2" angle iron and faced the 1 1/2" sides to each other (like a trough) and welded together. Then took two pieces of 1 1/2" X 1 1/2" angle iron and welded them inside the other two pieces, flat side up. This made a sturdy "L" shaped step which I bolted ahead of the left tire to two holes already in the loader brace. Works great.
Also, my tractor must sit outside, and my butt does not like sitting on ice in the winter. I made a hings out of two pieces of 10" X 12" 3/16" plate steel, welded 3/4" pipe for the hinge part (ran 5/8" rod through it), and tacked two nuts on the bottom plate for spacer between the plates. Then installed between pan and bracket originally on tractor, seat tilts back. Lastly, made a latch to hold the seat down as it can come up accidentally if you lean back.
This also suits my needs well.
