Mix 'n Match 417 & 520 parts - possible?

[davem1111 2,030]

Found a little time to tinker this week, and I'm getting closer to being at a point where I can take this tractor (which I'm calling the "517-H"  ) out for a test drive.  Wiring harness attached to the light panel only, nothing else yet.  Fender, seat and hood won't take long.  Need to mount the 12v fuel pump and get this off the IV. I'm going to need to rig up a battery tray as I'm missing that, and probably fab the tunnel cover and lower tower cover plates (later).

On the 520 there is nothing mounted to the lower plate on the hood stand as it's the only easy way to get to the lift when changing implements.  That's what I hate about the 312 try to get to the lift that way and the wires start coming of the switch's or gauges. I guess the 400 series is the same.
