Finished the grapple installation on the 6430 today. Watched it get loaded on a trailer for delivery about 30 minutes after completion. I guess that was cutting it close. Next work order was another loader installation. Only this time it was on a 1026R subcompact tractor. Same concept as the bigger tractor, but the parts are a whole lot easier to move and handle. Also takes a lot less time to install. After that install, checked my parts bin and found that all of the parts for the 4100N transmission repair had come in. Spent the rest of the day putting the transmission together. For used gears, they were in pretty good shape and did not require a lot of reconditioning. Should be able to get it all together tomorrow.
