S&M Trucking has a new loader!

[Supermario]

Hey All.
Small update on the loader. haven't been able to do much, busy with Mama Sues truck but managed to get er up on the table the other day. Found a leak on the return line fitting @ the tank so figured I would do an oil change ( antifreeze actually ) and see if I can reseal.
The cheap lookin exhaust stack was suddenly bugging me and I wondered what I could do to spruce it up a bit. Turns out the diameter of a stock Tamiya stack is a perfect fit! I cut off the bend in the pipe and the fit is nice and snug.







sorry, that's it. I guess I justed wanted to share the shiny new stack?

Don't forget to put a bucket over it when it rains Mario.

Been tinkering on and off for months now. Upgraded servos to metal gear type, new pump and motor. Had a steering servo horn strip at the Clifford show, now replaced with a metal version.
Just test running, checking for leaks etc before closing it up so thought I'd post a short video of where I'm at.

Finally ! I can post a decent update on the bruder loader. I haven't touched it since last summer when a servo went mad. Finally ordered a few new servos and got it up and running again.
I'm very excited because after a couple hours fine tuning the system it's running great! No leaks no high heat, all good
