Tractor w/silage plow,(Cowboys first Freddybuilt)
 
Musta done something right when I built my tractors,good enough so that ole-Paul asked little-o-Me to build him a 4x4 tractor.
Just happened to have one on hand.

He also asked if I could build one of these for the front of the tractor.

So first cut out the plow plow frame & blade.

Paul asked me to do him up a Steiger. (He just loves Ford tractors:rolleyes:)That's why I didn't mention the make of the tractor in the title.
So here is a pic of the blade in front of the real soon to be Paul's r/c silage pushin tractor.

I'm likin' this guys! Seeing more and more ag stuff is neat. And a setup like this will be a great addition to the meets when it comes to organizing and reshaping the rubber piles!:)

Yeah he does it is very nice but would never hold up to any use I looked at one at a toy show and they are just for show only and he is not easy to work with he will not give you any measurements it all I tryed with no luck as i was looking at getting one when I first got the tractor. Plus $485 dollar blade you cant use is junk..

Re: Tractor w/silage plow,(Cowboys first Freddybuilt)
 
Maybe not made for an RC but junk, I don't think so.

Wow that blade us pretty nice. the detail is great! I can see how it may be to fragile for RC applications.

FreddyGearDrive what are the tires and wheels you are using on the Ford in this thread? I did not see them in your other builds.

Well Paul,kinda looks like this is going to be the steering servo.
http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/n...uckPics845.jpg
I can't get the other one to work! Plus this baby will break the tractor in half,before it doesn't turn.:eek:

Ok there Rob.;)
Yea Paul,this baby is real strong! Might of gone a tad overkill on the frameing.But better than having it fold up under the tractor when your into some real pushin!
So...here's some pics & a vid of my progress.

http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/n...uckPics862.jpg
This short vid shows the liftin power this baby has.Don't need a jack to change the front tires.
http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/n...uckPics860.jpg
Might put a little faster motor in it,she could be a tad faster on the up & down.But if it's to fast,it really makes it hard to control a smooth grade.
Maybe,give her a test outside before I change anything.
Thanks for lookin!
