I think you gonna need a 4 axle drop side Bigford!!!

It's a little to big for my lowboy with the ripper on but width wise it ok a bit ridiculous lookin but that's cool

That looks some impressive machine there Mark.
Well that's my first post made too lol

WTF? What is with these shipping companies? Unless it's wrapped in concrete they seem to be able to damage things on a regular basis. SH!TTY!

Sad to see........FeedEx do nothing = ScrewUP FeedEx do Something = ScrewUP

FeedEx hav deliver 4 times at my place this month........All of it get returned badly damaged.

Get rid of the pop rivets haha

Glad to see see you got it,
I'm getting sorted with this house and wedding party thing,,,

Man shipping damage!! That sucks!!

That's messed up bloody transports! Hope everything gets sorted out for you.

Too bad for bad transport, but I belive its easy fix. I had similar problems shipping laser cut 1mm sheet metals for my trailer. And i decided to use 2mm next time:D

But this thing looks massive! It will look great after paint. I want a beast like that in my life :eek:

Man just the blade looks huge it looks like a great load for that lowboy

I HATE rivets LOL!!!

The blade weight should be 35.000-55.000lb 1/1 Right ?

Hello bigford did do anything with Fedup about the shipping or did you just let it go? I would think you should at least get some money back on the shipping. It's a shame you pay all that money and you get it all tore up before you get it. I was thinking about one of those my self but after seeing what you got I think I will pass. Ed

chris from BB put a claim in and there making replacement parts for me
he is a real cool guy to deal with.

two coats of CAT yellow on the back deck of the D11 surface rust was starting up

Looking very serious.

Great looking machine, really like your blade, bet that thing is going to push some serious dirt...

David

Cool now let's see em in the dirt!

That is one sexy dozer!!! Makes kill dozer look small

Those are two fine lookin machines

Great Models Friend :-)

Cooper, at the show this weekend, did I hear you telling Steve or someone else that the dirt likes to get stuck between the grouser and the pad in front of it? On my little Oliver it does exactly that. I should have took a few close ups of your machine. Do you have a build thread here with a good pic of the track pads?

I'm thinking about machining a few prototype track pads and want to try to reduce the dirt problem if possible. Wonder if the grouser could be moved back a bit?

Mark, could you tell me where you ordered you motors and what the part number is?

Nice to see you both at the show!
