Re: FGD powered rake/leveler on eBay
Saw one of Freddy's Ford tractors for sale too. Who is the person selling all these models? A family member, a friend of the family, or somebody who is a member here?

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"

Re: Aeromax Overhaul
Looking good Diesel Chopper! I like your cab guard, combination winch rack. Those short go between fenders are really nice as well.

Re: Tri Drive Winch Tractor
Nice work on that wheel! Do you have previous machining experience? With the way it turned out, I'd believe you're a pro. Now to make another exactly like it!

Re: Then and now
I like the now photos! Brown isn't the typical color I think of, when I think trucks, but it looks great on your King Hauler. The changes you've made are awesome. We need more photos!

Re: RCP57's first King...
External BEC would be my guess as well. I see a red and black (power) wire going in, and a servo type lead (red and black) going out, to what looks like the receiver.
Very nice job with this...

Re: Electronics questions

In this case you should be able to reverse the polarity to the motor that you need to spin the opposite way by switching the wires on the motor terminals. There are other ways to do it too, but this...
