dresser TD40B dozer
 

yes another build I'm starting :rolleyes: well it will be a slow start and quick finnish . this time I decided to collect all the parts first then build to cut down on the redo time like the pans :mad: not a lot of functional probs just a lot of little things that bother me :( . So here's a cardboard drawing to somewhat scale of 1:13/1:14 (trying to get the most power pact into it as close to scale as possible ) so don't hold your breath on this 1 It will take awhile :( maybe :D

I would find a good side on veiw pic and blow it up to the scale you want then you can make easy patterns but what you have is a good start keep it up and you will have another great build

Re: dresser TD40B dozer
 

Great to see this dozer being built. If you need reference material, let me know and I'll see what I can get for you. The distributor I work for carried IH Construction since 1925 - probably have access to most all published materials.

NICE START!!!!!

Re: dresser TD40B dozer
 

ken , what would be a real help is a brochure on the pay scraper 433 . I have the parts book but it sucks for giving dimensions

thanks Clyde , this works well for me as long as I got some dimensions to go by . I've been itching to do this for some time . If goes well , I'll do a cat also . I think I might run out of scrap till I'm done building :eek:

Wow. That's a huge machine! I didn't realize the weight and hp! Should be an interesting build to watch. You sure keep busy. I don't know where you find the time for all your builds!

Re: dresser TD40B dozer

How did the pump turn out Steve any fluid flowing yet?

I'm glad your building a dozer it sould be a brute.

Re: dresser TD40B dozer
 

yes with it clamped together , hitch to the drill . I think it'll work great . I still got to bolt the housing together and make the motor mount

I'm glad to , need something to move all the rocks before I can even think of using the pan :confused:

I wanted to get the frame welded up tonight but out of saw blades :mad: + the flipin esc on my sawzall acting up :mad::mad: supposed to be variable speed all I get is high or nothing :mad: so I'll finish the suspension on the tub this weekend :confused:
