[AT] Aftermarket remote hydraulics source

[Richard Walker]

Today I was over at a friend's place who needed remote hydraulics added 
onto his existing Branson tractor to operate a backhoe attachment he'd 
bought used.  He had altered the backhoe's mounting frame to fit, but 
the Branson had no factory remotes on the rear to operate it.  He found 
a nearby guy, Andy Herringshaw, with a business selling hydraulic 
conversion kits for tractors.  Such as for adding remote connections, 
3-point hitches, hydraulic toplinks, etc.

Andy had never done a Branson remote addition before, so drove up to my 
friend's place to do the work, also document what's needed in case he 
ever makes kits for Bransons. Andy did the job in under two hours. The 
backhoe hydraulics operate fine, and my friend couldn't be happier.

Anyway, I was very impressed by Andy's kits for many tractor makes, all 
using quality components, including detailed do-it-yourself installation 
instructions.  He sells at half to two-thirds the price a tractor dealer 
would charge for factory brand kits. Also he sells a 3-point hitch 
conversion kit for IH Cub tractors.

The usual disclaimer, I have no connection to Tractor Innovations and 
only decided to post this to the list after meeting Andy today and 
learning the interesting details about his company.  Maybe useful to a 
few of you.
