Designing an MOC to fit with another MOC can be difficult, but this wheel loader
can dump loads into the dump truck I posted a link to Wednesday.  To do this I
had to get all the range out of the lower lifting pistons as possible, and
sacrifice some range in the pistons that tilt the bucket. I never got TLC's
wheel loader kit from 1997, so my design is totally different.  It is also a
different scale.

This is an older pic of the two MOC's working together.  It is from before I
updated the loader design.

If anyone has any comments or a better design for the same constraints, both
would be appreciated.

(...) Nathan, Great looking models. I really like the skull and crossbone mudflaps on the back of the dump truck. They add a nice touch. -Alvin. (19 years ago, 28-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Hi Nathan, Thanks for posting this and the Dump Truck. It is always a pleasure to see your models. As you know I don't do "wheels", but I do appreciate the work of those that do. Kev (19 years ago, 28-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)
