Bolens Iseki FEL build

[badboyrcg70]

Yes,
I discussed what to use with the industrial supply store and it was either use these or have fittings braised on.
The cost was about the same but they said either would hold up.

Long term plans are to have new hard lines bent but these should hold for now.

Nice job. I have a 770 loader on my Ford, you will never overload a 770 with a smaller tractor.

As far as compression fittings, I cut my pressure line to plumb my FEL valve in and used 12mm comp. fittings on the supply hardline. I've had zero issues for over 10 yrs of use.

Sorry for the ugly mug shot of the rider. Got the loader all finished up and just playing around.
Have only 1 small leak at the trans cooler hose(not even loader install related)
and need to swap 2 hoses at control box around because bucket goes up when it should go down and vice versa.

Very nice job!! Matches the tractor real good. If it was mine, the only thing that I would change is on the tractor and that is I would put wheel spacer on it. Again NICE JOB.

What do you mean when you say a wheel spacer?
I do have wheel weights for the rear just haven't put them on yet.

Wheel spacers push your rear wheels out further to get better clearance or for your case better stability by having a wider stance. Google is your friend here
