New project! Bruder cat track loader Update 1/4/12
As I wait for the finishing touches for my tri-axle i decided to build something to load with. I really like the looks of he track loader and I have seen some really great conversions. So I decided to this one after some research. I really liked Pumptech's drive configurations. Here are some pics after I got the hubs made and mounted. Thanks for looking!

Hi Brian,
Have been thinking about using those micro gearmotors for the drive in my Liebherr 574 Loader - how do you find them ? I would be using four - one on each wheel. Andi |

Re: New project! Bruder cat track loader
Perhaps you can give us a demonstration in 28days:D
Did you add a pintle hitch on the triaxle so you can pull a 25T tag-a-long? |
Re: New project! Bruder cat track loader
what are going to use to make the loader work?

Well I am moving right along with this. This is a really fun project! I threw it back together to shoot a vid. The bucket has a full quart of hydro oil in it. I'm happy so far. Thanks for looking!

Brian, I'm sure you'll do a great job. I'll be paying attention, I'd like to try one in the future.
It looks like it moves effortlessly. Ben |

Good work! :D
As for hydraulics, what pump, spool, etc did you get? Do you have the hydraulic components? what battery are you planning on running? You may want to consider a battleswitch so that you can turn the pump on and off to save battery when you're just rolling around... |

Wow, this is a new direction for you to be headed, Brian. I'm surprised, in fact, but I'm sure you can pull it off! You wasted no time getting a running model. Looks good in the video already. Think there will be enough room for the hydraulics?

Thank for all the compliments guys! I got my Hydraulics in yesterday. I must say the cylinders are pretty cool. I got the dump cylinder mounted it was easy. I got the boom ones mounted on the frame, but still deciding how to mount on the boom. thanks for looking!

Re: New project! Bruder cat track loader Update 1/4/12
where did u pick up this hydro system? the pump looks to like it will fit in my track loader better then a leimbach pump.
