Hello, from Timrå, Sweden.

I have converted a Toro Groundsmaster to a wheel loader.

Using Google I found something similar and became a member to check out Xfaxman's project thread.

Welcome!

Stick around a while you will see all kinds of ingenuity and receive a wealth of knowledge from some amazing people.

Most are friendly too! :)

Valkommen Jonas,

We're happy to have you here on TBN.

Be well and happy tractoring,

Do you know much Swedish?

It was a TORO GROUNDSMASTER 217D

Welcome to TBN from central Oklahoma. :thumbsup:

Great minds think alike! :laughing: I am glad that I inspired you to build one, I just finished looking at your thread and will say yours is a lot more work! Great pictures, looking forward to more. I put mine together 8 years ago, and am still using it now.

I did not know of yours when I built mine, but you were still first. I saw that you managed to lay yours on the side. Still this design with the fixed axle near the bucket is much more stable than a 'normal' tractor with front lift. :drink:

Oops I jumped to the wrong conclusion.

Yep, I agree the solid front axle is more stable. I have driven mine with the back wheels off the ground, when there is too much weight on the forks. Just go backwards and steer with the turning brakes! :D

The time it rolled was a freak accident, side slope and the right front wheel went into a hole where a tree had been removed,
