I plan to modify the bucket into a 4 to1 bucket. The actuators this last round failed on the bruder track loader and it will become a new scraper tractor.
Scott, so you have to have the loader boom all the way up before you can dump the bucket? You can't dump or tilt it at mid-height? That stinks, if so. It's a really nice looking machine though. Did you make or purchase the JD decals? I like them.
