That does look spot on with your added extras Phil.

Can I ask for the sizes of the diameter of the rims and tyres plus width please as they look like they could be perfect for my planned John Deere 6930 conversion?

looks spot on now Phil,worth the extra effort and cost although you shouldn't have to be doing that these days on new U.H models

I know I do😂 I have 2 of them. Would leave one standard , but I wouldn’t have a clue how to do it

those Zuidbergs are designed for the wiking Jack,so maybe very little grinding down off the diecast chassis with a dremel,if any possibly

Looking good , that front linkage looks smart. I’d like one on my wiking 7530 but don’t want to risk damaging the model 😂

Go on, you know you wanna do it 😄

Please could one of the mods move the topic over to tractor conversions sometime,thankyou.

I started work on this one as I didn't want to pay silly money for a wiking 7530,,Made the front axle work and steer a bit better got the fronts wheels rolling smoother,then got the 3d printed zuidberg front linkage buit up and working nicely,lastly had a bit of a test fit with the newly painted floorpan and cab on.

Exhaust and rear linkage to be done next!

Good job Andy,the toy linkages are okay for the kiddies but not us older collectors

agreed the 6r looks very good 

very nice sf 14 there James

very impressive model James

Just saw one of those kramers last week in the yellow and grey colours,that model went under the radar of everyone on here 😄

Could you try the tooth paste polishing technique to take out the scratches in the glass?

I have bought a  britains john deere 6m for the floorpan and cab to go on this but I will give it a go and see how it comes up as I've never tried that, thankyou for the advice Simon

they look very realistic Ian,amazing how all the rivet or bolt heads looks so uniform.Did you make them yourself? 

Looks spot on that jd telehandler,last saw one of those abandoned in the road after a cashpoint ram raid at the local co-op shop

So I had no replys on this model,so assuming I cant get a cab not sure what to do with it.

I have a chance of getting a britains jd 6m and using the floorpan +cab to make it good but then stuck with the leftovers from that model,or also have a chance to just buy a siku 7530 for around £50 which combined costs with what I have and getting a britains 6m will be same cost wise really.

Trying to figure out a way of making it good and not throwing much in the bin and getting a 30 series without paying the mad wiking prices
