Liebherr 574

[RCP57]

While I am still holding out on Mario's exhaust request I did finally receive my order from China that contained the new slower gear motors for this today. After work I made the swap and was very pleased with the results! I went from 133rpm to 77rpm and I think it is the perfect speed!

It's your loader Reg, do to it what you wish
Just giving a heads up on another spot for metal rather than plastic.
The new motors definitely have a much better speed and I can see why you like this build, it works pretty darn good!

I didn't wish to break it but I just did.... Bucket curl actuator gave up the ghost. It stopped working if run all the way in at first and then died completely shortly afterwards. I think maybe the circuit board/limiter thingy burnt out??? I guess I am no longer using this until I can visit with Ian and buy a replacement.

Your "tip" to change out the exhaust is a good one Mario. I just haven't made up the piece yet. I wish the whole thing was metal... If I had more time for my own projects it would be having an all metal cousin sitting next to it in the very near future. I still enjoy running the hoe more but the wheel loader is a blast too! I just wish it was a touch more industrial...
