844john Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Been meaning to try this one for a while and finally got chance last night, Britain's 4220 fitted with a UH Stoll loader. The loader is damaged at the headstock, so this will be removed and replaced with a scratch-built one that can take different attachments. Progress so far...

844john Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thanks Ben, that's not a bad idea actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 That looks really good john. If you are going to have a lime spreader on the back, best to make sure the underside is nicely detailed as most round us seem to spend as much time upside down as they do the right way up. l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think washable seat covers are a must Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks David, it actually turned out much easier than I expected, the holes in the loader sub frame lined up almost perfectly with the screws in the tractor chassis!

844john Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Headstock painted, number plate and a couple of warning stickers added. I'm also wanting to add a couple of datatags as well but can't find any pictures of where they would be, any ideas anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I put my datatags on my fastracs on the black bit under the side of the yellow bonnet John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
844john Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Thanks Paul, on this one the loader frame obscures the bonnet, I was wondering about the back of the cab on the yellow below the windows? Quite a few JD's have them on the insides of the rear mudguards, just a thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 true,i did ask Pecks where they did put them,as I done a 4220 demo conversion model for the jcb area sales manager at Pecks,they do also put them under the mudguards of the rear wheels,i cant find pictures of the model on here anymore,since this forum was updated I have lost a lot of images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Thanks for that Paul, thought I was being a bit thick at first as I couldn't see them, then I worked out the zoom on the phone! Under the mudguards it is then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 Bonnet sprayed with clear lacquer as I did with the John Deere 6150m, photos don't show up as well but in the flesh it has made a big difference, will give the rest of the yellow plastic on the model the same treatment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenside MF Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 That's looking really good John,I always spray clear lacquer after spray painting as I find it gives a nice high gloss finish and it seals it too as I once left a rubber band on a painted trailer and it stuck to it!
