front end loader plans

[bigten65]

Looking for plans to build a front loader for my allis chalmers bigten 1965 garden tractor.

I bought FEL plans from P.F. Engineering. I got side tracked and didn't do the build but I like his plans. Now I'm looking to buy a new tractor with loader on it so I probably won't be using them.

I scratch built one for my Kubota. Its a '3 cylinder' design and I loosely copied the loader off a BX22. Its served me well for 9 years now.

David,

Do you have any other photo of the single front cylinder. I am still collecting parts for my loader build and I need to either purchase one or two more cylinders.

Also how has the single cylinder worked? If you did it again would you go with two?

Thanks
Bernie

The only issue I have with the single bucket cylinder is that I did not make the cross brace beefy enough and have had to reinforce and reweld. A dual cylinder set up would not have created that.

Be sure to post up some details on your big10. I have a similar tractor that was my FILs. Did some restoration and planning on building a FEL for it also.
