New here...just thought I would start a little thread. I have a John Deere 5520 Tractor (don't know what year). Been playing catch up on my Dad's place since he died last May. Perimeter fencing, cross-fencing, and currently about 20 cows, 10 calves, and 1 bull. My top three attachments over the past couple of years are: 1) a grapple for the front for hauling away brush I'm having to cut off of fences - I love this thing, 2) a bush hog, 3) near & dear to my heart - a home-made box (4'x4'x1') with an angle iron frame and 3/4" plywood floor and sides for hauling everything I need to clear and repair/restretch/replace fencing - can slide the back forks right under it through some short pieces of square tubing welded to the bottom, pick it up, and away we go (the missus called it a luggage rack. Honorable mention goes to a 200 gallon tow-behind sprayer (works off of PTO) that has been worth its weight in gold when the weeds start to show up - made a huge difference in the pastures last year. What projects are you working on and what are your favorite attachments that help you get it done?
