3-Pt Mounted Tractor Tool Racks TRACTORS Accessories Tim Descoteaux of Morris Conn purchased a Deere 2520 tractor in 2013 and realized he needed more space on it to haul tools and other equipment Running back and forth from his barn to a spot on his property made it more difficult to finish a task “I started BigToolRack to get more out of my compact tractor Descoteaux says “I’ve always had a passion for tractors and farm and landscaping equipment ” Descoteaux was constantly going back and forth moving all his tools He looked around to see if there was a product that could help him carry what he needed on the tractor Descoteaux couldn’t find anything that worked for him so he started building a prototype out of metal and wood He then kept tweaking it to get to what would eventually become the BigToolRack As interest in the product grew Descoteaux says he got serious about the BigToolRack and left his full-time job in 2017 The BigToolRack allows farmers and property owners to carry their power tools hand tools and anything else needed to get a job done It doubles as a carryall and a ballast weight box It can be used to carry rakes shovels grass seed straw and fertilizer The BigToolRack is built to work with compact and subcompact tractors It comes with a counterweight that allows you to hang suitcase weights on the rack to give you the additional ballast you’ll need when moving heavy loads with a loader “The system easily attaches to a tractor’s three-point hitch and still lets you tow a trailer once it’s attached to the tractor ” he says “There’s a click-on wheel system that converts the rack into a roll-away storage system to neatly store tools in your garage or barn when it’s not in use ” He says the wheels telescope up and down so it can work as a tool cart whether it’s on or off the tractor They recently invented an attachment that will allow the BigToolRack to hook onto the front of the tractor That’s ideal for people working with a backhoe or a tractor with something already attached to the back The smaller model called the YardRack is made out of ballistic nylon and steel The larger racks called the Ultimate Rack are made of 11-ga steel sidewalls and a floor bed to withstand the rigors of the job Commercial-grade 2-ga 1/4-in steel is used in the support spine and handles payloads of up to 600 lbs The racks are 100 percent powder-coated to protect them from the elements The heavy-duty 4-in caster wheels on retractable legs are held in place with agriculture-grade pins The Ultimate Rack sells for $2 189 the Ultimate Rack with quick-hitch combo is $2 499 and the Ultimate Rack Skid Steer Quick Hitch Combo is $2 799 The YardRack package including the mounting kits retails for $299 99 For farmers with ATVs the ATVSportRack sells for either $489 99 or $499 99 depending on the connecting kit you prefer BigToolRack offers a 10 percent military discount for active duty and veterans The best place to shop for a BigToolRack is on the company website Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Timothy Descoteaux BigToolRack 71 Benedict Road Morris Conn 06763 ph 844-287-7225; info@bigtoolrack com; www bigtoolrack com
