I just have to finish up the rear end a little bit, otherwise it´s ready.

Now I´m ready with this truck, and I´m very happy with it.

It doesn´t look very great, but it has a lot of features:

  • 4x4 with an L motor through worm gears
  • Pendular suspension front and rear stabilized with rubber dampers
  • Rack and pinion steering with an M motor
  • Raising/lowering bucket with a 9v motor and a small linear actuator
  • Tilting bucket with an M motor and a small linear actuator

It was my first time making a front loader, and getting it this compact was challenging.

The raising/lowering was the hardest to do, a small linear actuator pulls on a thing sliding on two axles, pulling on a linkage raising the bucket.

I thought that it would be super top-heavy, but it is actually not too bad, it is decent off road.
