Continuing the driveway repair and sprung a hydraulic leak on the tractor

After returning home from our camping trip, I had a few hours of daylight left, so I decided to jump on the tractor and try to do a little bit more cleanup around the driveway. First I had to rig up a strange contraption to be able to use my forks While I still had my bucket attached. I did this so I didn’t have to struggle with changing the pin on style bucket to the forks, which is always a pain in the butt. Although not the perfect scenario, they were getting the job done. That is until I broke the tractor, I didn’t actually break it, but we did have a hydraulic return hose burst under pressure and spray hydraulic fluid everywhere. Put into our project a little bit earlier than we would’ve liked.
