HorseFixer 2,012 #76 Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) Yep, stand up Job there Lad! Ole Duke gives ya thumbs up all the way! I was going to build one but Luckily I found the Deal on the Ark. However I will be going over all the welds as they look like chicken poop splatter!My grand daughter could do a better job than they did. Well anyways I have enough on my plate being I have to rebuild the whole 520-H Including the Onan, Hmmm I feel Deja Vu like I have been here once before. Well $$$$$$ Here we go again. ~Duke Edited September 14, 2015 by HorseFixer 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WNYPCRepair 1,923 #77 Posted September 14, 2015 I was wondering why you bought a loader in the first place, you could obviously have made the rest of the pieces. Then I realized it was for the hydraulics. Beautiful job 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elliot ness 1,916 #78 Posted September 14, 2015 Got the stainless lines secure and done for now. The lines kicked my behind, it took 6+ hrs today and hydraulic fluid all over my tractor loader and deck. Oh well it's very powerful for a small loader I have a 14 ft. 83in. wide tandem axle trailer and by lifting on the hitch end I got the tires off the ground and the trailer resting on the back end. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alswagg 128 #82 Posted September 16, 2015 I would highly recommend building a set of forks or spears. On my FEL the bucket removes with 4 pins. I built a set of spears that installs on the lift frame very easily. The forks or spears are used much more than the bucket 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
