Fabricate a homemade front loader from scratch vs. buying an old rust one for $500.00

   / Fabricate a homemade front loader from scratch vs. buying an old rust one for $500.00 #11  
I started thinking along these lines. I suppose even an old one from the late 50's would be fine. So long as the design is good, rams can be replaced and steel can be welded. Is that your farmall in the picture? What kink of loader is that? looks newer than the tractor.

Thanks for the idea and letting me know that it would be a pretty easy project. By the way, where would I run the hydraulic juice from? Is there a power beyond point in this ol' 454.?
Not mine. Found it on google. but mine had a narrow front end with trip bucket that was the same style. Dont remember the brand of loader (sold it 6 yrs ago) but I think it was a freeman loader.

Hydraulics I have no idea on. Most or all farmall M's had one control valve with only one outlet to provide lift.
