That's just it, I'm getting tired of the hydraulic problems on my loader. And since I made it custom anyway I figured I could use a 100rpm worm gear motor to lift the loaders arm. 100 rpm is what I got around d the house. Also I've seen gear drives used for loaders before. What do you guys think and ideas on what you'd do to do this, worm gear /90' gearmotor
Thanks as always.

I have no idea on how this will turn out, but one key element besides strength is speed. I have the mechanical screwdrive for my Carson Liebherr tracked loader. It super strong, but the speed it on the slow side. Waiting for the bucket to clear the top of the truck gets old pretty quick ;)
