Beginner Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Hello everybody, Yesterday i started with my first serious conversion! So don't be to hard... It won't be so beautiful as your conversions! I'm pimping up the Fendt 930 from siku. This WAS to be going my entry for the competition but forgotted to take pics of what i did so... \ What i will do: - Tyres of a claas axion (siku) - Back mudguards and cab of the Fendt 818 (universal hobbies) - Fronthef from someone who makes them. First of all sorry for the quality from the pictures! I just placed the cab on the back mudguards for the picture i need to place it well Let me know what you think!! Sorry for the bad pictures and English \ Quote
Massey Boy Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 i think you can still enter the comp even if you didnt take pictures of what you done looks good so far think the claas axion tyres ore going to look great Quote
Beginner Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 @ Massey boy: I hope so \ Ye, thanks! Quote

Jez Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 This will be an interesting conversion One question though, why not just buy the Wiking Fendt 930? \ Quote
Beginner Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 @Rich: Thanks! @Jez: thanks! Wiking doesn't make a 930 they make a 936 some huge differents over here 930: 936: Pictures are from: http://www.tractorfan.nl/ Quote
Jez Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 @Rich: Thanks! @Jez: thanks! Wiking doesn't make a 930 they make a 936 some huge differents over here 930: 936: Pictures are from: http://www.tractorfan.nl/ Ok, I see now. The Wiking chasis would make a nice donor though mate!! ;) Quote
Beginner Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 @Jez: ha ha! Do you have one then? I don't know it would need some changes i guess Quote
Jez Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 @Jez: ha ha! Do you have one then? I don't know it would need some changes i guess Well I am sure you could use the wheels and main chasis? Cab interior? Rear hitch? front hitch? Quote
MPR Models Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I agree with the others,interesting convo mate Quote
Beginner Posted February 16, 2009 Author Posted February 16, 2009 @Jez: I could use it, ye. The front axle, rear hitch, front hitch and tyres maybe yes Bit I'm sure it will need some changes! A big one is the fuel tank... @Pete: thanks mate! Quote
Scotty12 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 That looks like a nice start so far! It should look good when its done! Quote
MF 6265 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 Here is a conversion I made a couple of years ago. Quote
Beginner Posted February 18, 2009 Author Posted February 18, 2009 @Scotty: thanks! @Mf: that's also a nice one! But it just don't like the siku front and rear hitches \ And the fendt does have nice tyres with rims of a Fendt 818/820 (uh) But i just don't like the front ones and no other rim could go in it \ I did get my tyres Early than i expected and here they are The front ones don't have their rims on but i have them over here I must lift the cab a bit up for the back tyres and maybe some new mudguards for the front ones Let me know what you guys think! Ye, i know the back chassis \ Need to found something for it because the chassis was stuck on the old siku cab but new I've putted a new one on i still need to find out Quote
Johny mf Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Looks good! What i alway's do iff i have that problem whit that on the back. I take a piece off wood in side off the chasis and glue that to the top off the chasis. Then take a screw and use that in case off the original siku screw. (shal personal mail you also the explenation in youre own language but so other people can also use the tip!) Quote
Fendthead Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 I found the front gards off a siku 718 are a good size. also don't fall into the trap I did doing my UH/siku 718 , if you need to extend the rear wheel arches do it now Going to look good tho Quote
