See prior work here at LifeTrac#Basic_Frame. Remove the articulated joint, and add a second loader on the rear.

Basic design rationale for the frame:

  1. Wheels are offset from the right to left side of the tractor by 8 inches to allow for mounting of hydrauilic motors on the side of the frame, as opposed to the bottom, for easy access.
  2. Hydraulic motors have quick connect couplers so the operator could select front wheel, rear wheel, and four wheel drive.
  3. Hydraulic motor mount plate (see blog for hydraulic motor mount plate)
