Loader is done! I really wish I had taken more pics but
time was running out and needed to finish. Here is a couple of shots.
The only thing that is not homebuilt on here is the control valve and the
cylinders. Made the bucket and arms. I had to guess at the height, but it
works perfectly. Actually, with the pump I am using, it can lift a lot
more than the OEM loaders. Of course I need to be careful not to hurt the
tractor, but its nice to have the extra power if needed. It's on a 20hp
Sun Star, power steering is a
HUGE advantage with the loader on. I built this to be used with mowing
deck on. The pump is run off the front PTO shaft.
Thanks for posting the project and if I can answer any ???'s,
please feel free to e-mail me....

Here's Scott's initial report
Just sitting here sweating and figured I would
send you some shots of the loader I am building. Maybe some members are
thinking about it and have some ???. Its going on my 20hp Sun Star. I have
been really busy at work so missed the finish date I set. Hopefully will
finish by next weekend.
