Rearloader
I've started to build a rearloader. Not a copy of anything (easier that way :D)
Made the bucket today. Quite narrow, since most of the old rearloaders did not come with wide buckets. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...loader_001.jpg http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...loader_002.jpg http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...loader_003.jpg Outside test of the difflock (RC4WD truck axle): http://youtu.be/LYjFy5LNHJI |
Re: Rearloader
That's very unique. I'm surprised you have room for all the electronics, and hydraulics. These machines were never very large.

Re: Rearloader
Very cool project. What scale is the tractor?

Re: Rearloader
Nice. Your loader runs very smooth, and seems to have plenty of power. I know you like the narrow bucket, but I honestly feel like it could easily handle a wider one. There doesn't seem to be a lack of traction or power!

Stunt loader!lol Looks like it works very well! Nice job making something different.

Re: Rearloader
Great video! Now it looks like you need some counterweights in the rear. Maybe some agriculture tractor style suitcase weights that can be added, or removed? I'm still impressed with the performance! Smooth, strong, and I like how you designed the self-leveling bucket linkages.
