1/16th JD 7600

Hey ya'll
Been working on converting a 1/16 Ertl john Deere to RC. I don't have many pictures yet, haven't done much other than figuring.
This is taking way to many brain cells, as I'm working with what I have on hand, and from what I can find, the first non articulating 4x4 RC tractor. That and I want a realistic 3 point and a functioning PTO. Do to the LOVELY cast iron production methods, I'm cutting a steel frame/rear end to increase ease(I hope) and room.
Anyways, Here's a few pictures:
basic idea, only 4x4:
