Here's a shot of my battery tender install and my front bumper mod to obscure the mounting flanges for the brush guard which I don't need. The bumper is nothing but schedule 80pvc with a 1/2" allthread rod with washers inside, then cap and paint. May help keep branches out of the radiatior a little but doesn't do much for the leaves.

Thanks,,forgot to add shot of plastic label I mounted on my dash to make sure I don't start the Gator with out disconnecting the charger. My key ring also has a "remove before flight" tag.

One of these days I bet you will wish you had the brush guard. I hope not, but I suspect so. It looks nice though.

Super idea on the plastic label. I have labels as such when working on my vehicles, "Don't Start NO OIL": I also agree with purplewg you need the front brush gurard, fender guards and front rack. Like he said looks Great but also a bunch of protection for you huge investment. I recently purchased the front basket then lined it with thin plywood, of course painted JD green, we use the front basket as much as the rear bed. Also the Kolpin gear grips, believe purplewg starte me on those, are so very useful. Just ordered two more set for local dealer as I want to mount them in the enclosed trailer.

No brush to drive thru on my ranch, all of its on the perimeter property line but I can always get one if necessary. The basket would be useful though, might be reconsidering around Christmas.
