KL 1450 loader

[DK35vince]

In previuos posts I mentioned I was dissapointed with the tilt power for my bucket.
I have been doing a few changes to hopefully help.
I made longer bracket where the cylinders attach and moved the pins on my quick attach up 3".
I still need to dissasemble and paint the new pieces.

I had to trim back the quick attach a bit for the pins.

I also bumped the loader pressure up to 2400 PSI (I'm not recommending this, but I'm doing it !!)
I still need to test the tilt cylinder seals for any leak by.

Also added a set of lights to the ROPS.

Here is a picture of what the original bucket linkage looked like.

I now have all the bucket linkage and quick attach repainted and reassembled. No pictures yet.
I still need to add bucket stops (the originals are no longer in the right place)
Almost done and should have more roll back power.

I hope this works out better for you Vince - I'm impressed that you can make something like this. I have zero ability in that regards - Good luck with the mods - I'll be interested in your "final report".

Take Care,

I'm enjoying this project a lot Vince. I too wish I had the talents to do these mods. Keep up the good work, hope it works better. John
