Tractorman810 Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 sexy indeed mark, but for now heres the updated version mate uses a 4 stage ram to lift the main body up didn't take to long to do either, just need to oil it a bit as they are a bit stiff for the lift, have alos made a 4 stage small one for the body lift but forgot the plasti strut for the mounts on it :'( :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 go for it marky, i should be finishing of the body on this tommorrow all being well, and fixing everything into final place, prior to painting, just need to re-aline the lift arms slightly as they are ever so to much wide for the chassis 100ths of a mm but it wont sit right down flush at present, ,only other change will be the wheels ,got a couple of pairs of uh cargo trailer ones coming at toytrac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Looking good Sean......Would look a treat tipping into one of the Britains tippers......

Tractorman810 Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 mmm prefer the 3690 mate, not overly sure on the tims wheels at present, may be a bit large for it, hopefully the uh ones will sit better on her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Blimey, your getting this down to a perfection ain't ya? Those ariels are just the job ain't they? Are they chromed, coz they may now take to paint very well. . .. Just a though but I'm no expert as you already know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 yeah they are chrome tris, might well chip the crome of the outter lower one so it willl take the paint ok, though if i rough it up first the primer should take shouldn't it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Thats what Id have said, leave the upper stage and rough up the lower with some emery cloth or something so the paint can bite in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Won't it just scrape off when the rams go up and down Don't mean to be the profit of doom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 it will only be painted on the outer large one mark, not the inner 3 stages they will stay chrome as per the real ones mate, to add to the used look, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
