Great work FGD! You guys amaze me with the stuff you come up with...I never would have thought it would work as well as it does w/out the video proof!

Any photos of the Steiger? Did you do it the same as the Ford? I know they are basically the same tractor with different engines but I love the Steiger soooo much more!

Re: Power leveler (harley rake)
 
Thanks Guys!
Yea Brian,it puts me back 5 yrs in time when I run this thing.
Steve,funny you should mention a rock hound,that was what I was going to make first.Now it looks like it will be second.:D
Spudd,I'm on #5 wheel kit so far.Everytime I make one,it winds up in the scrap pile,& I start over. Just can't seem to get it the way I want.But # 6 will be the keeper!
Cossett,she might be little,But it works as good as the $10,000 dollor units I used in the 1:1 side of things.
Ok Claus! Here's the build thread.:D
This is my version of the Steiger changing into something usefull.
First the toy!

Sweet!! Love it Fred.

Re: Power leveler,& Steiger build
 
Nice work on both pieces of equipment, Fred. You did a nice job stuffing the inards of the Steiger. The power leveler seems to work really well. So how heavy do you suppose your Steiger is now? And what kind of battery pack are you running on it?

Claus 09-16-2011 11:05 PM

Re: Power leveler,& Steiger build
 
Why the change of drivetrain? Is one better than the other or is it more about your tractor's personal space?

Ken Orme 09-17-2011 12:06 AM

Re: Power leveler,& Steiger build
 
Is there anything that grinds up the dirt other than the hex bar.

Tractor conversion looks good also. What size is it and where can one be purchased?

Here you go Ken, your choice of duals or singles.

Fred I have two Steigers myself, would love to see one of them converted someday. I have been wondering about a set of Stainless Chem Farm fertilizer tanks mounted to the front to mount the batteries leaving more room in the tractor for maybe a 3 speed.
