This Allis G has been a project I have been working on off and on for a couple years. Started out look like this and the loader had been removed. Bought the loader with help from people I know in PA.as it came from PA auction. Today made some adjustments to the length of the loaders arms and will need to weld the pivot points for the cylinders.

I read an article somewhere that said they used shortened G's with loaders to unload railroad box cars. For-runner of the skid steer loader. Nice job, rare tractor !!

Richard, You always have interesting Allis projects! This short G and loader will turn some heads. Power steering might be needed with a bucket full of dirt? Looking forward to your updates too. Regards, Chris

Today work on the making Cylinders for the loader. The ones that came with the tractor are to far gone to fix. These will not be exactly like the others but close. Was able to cut the back section off the tube, Also drilled out for oil supply and welded a fitting back in. Was able to cut off the shaft and re taper it.

DiyDave's post tells the story.
This unit is great but only for a few uses. My best use is elevated storage in our large shed; also hauling wood chips at our church large, blacktop parking lot.
CAUTION is important if your shortened G is operated without the loader; I was told they could easily do wheelies. Herb(GA)

Made a bracket to hold the Hydraulic pump. Used the torch and a grinder to make the cut out. Had to cut out and 1 1/2" of the bracket to allow the pump to be installed and re welded on the other side. Also clean out the tank and mounted the valves on the tractor. The color is wrong and this will be corrected when everything is tested and working order.

I think I have that same old drill press in the shed. A guy gave it to me, didn't want it scrapped, so I took it. I've never had a motor hooked to it and the flat belt step pulley is gone off the back, but I do use it for cracking walnuts

" The initial application was unloading bulk http://i.viglink.com/?key=d7d7aa5ced1ebc0821effbccab897fa0&insertId=19286589d466d806&type=M&exp=60%3ACI1C55A%3A14&libId=jxv83gd3010009ks000DAmj3xpl4p&loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.allischalmers.com%2Fforum%2Fanother-mutant-model-g_topic27673.html&v=1&iid=19286589d466d806&opt=true&out=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.homedepot.com%2Fp%2FMilorganite-36-lb-Organic-Nitrogen-Fertilizer-100048741%2F100618523&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.allischalmers.com%2Fforum%2Fallis-g-short-project_topic161353.html&title=Another%20Mutant%20Model%20G%20-%20AllisChalmers%20Forum&txt=%3Cspan%3Efertilizer%3C%2Fspan%3E" rel="nofollow - fertilizer from railroad boxcars (as David mentioned); and the immediate market was eastern Iowa." My Dad worked at AGRICO, in Fulton, Il back in the day(post WWII). It was a bulk fertilizer outfit, just across the river from Clinton,Iowa. I can't ask him anymore, but I would be willing to bet he saw and maybe even used one of these short G's while unloading boxcars. One of the original AC mechanics from the old Albany,Il dealer, is still around, living in Clinton,Iowa. Net time I see him at his shop, I'll have to ask if he ever saw any of these around.

I'd think you want to keep your elbows tucked in tight when operating that loader!! A neat little tractor, never the less.
