Default Re: Kubota D782 swap

It's been a while since I have posted. Life gets in the way as usual.

Finally got the motor mounts welded in and the engine has been dropped in place. It's a really tight squeeze, but will work.

Motor mounts are 1-1/4" square tubing welded to the frame with 1/4" flat stock welded to the square tubing for a flat seating area so I could mount the rubber isolators and drop the engine in.

I will have to relocate the radiator as there is just not enough room where I would like it to go. I am thinking I will either have to mount it up front or between the bars of the roll cage. Open to ideas/suggestions.
