Ed, you should have just bought my dozer, at least all the parts are there.lol

Joe I know your right but I all ready had these before you decided to let it go or I would have bought your dozer, I have wanted that from the start. I finally got both of the tracks done now had to do a lot of bending on them to get them to work right. I guess the old saying is true live and learn and as old as I am I should have learned by now I should have gotten them all put together but O Boy. Just got a Email from TTM should be getting the parts soon he has most of them now and will get the rest today, I hope this the last of missing parts. Ed.

Ed,

As ya may know, Iv'e had most of my dozer customed out and I'm left almost enough parts to build another one. If ya need some parts, let me know I may have em'. By the way, you should follow in my footsteps build one thats stronger and heavier. I also thought you were gonna custom up some tracks? later, Greg

Sorry to hear you are having parts problems Ed. I hope you get everything you need.

Bad luck is fine because it is usually followed by good and the worse the bad is the better the good is.

Scott thanks for the encouragement. Greg well I don't have any windows, the inner part of the cab. That it so far for the dozer but the loader is another story I need the inner part of the cab the 2 pieces that go under the steps at the rear to hold them up, The 2 rear hand rails, the 2 pieces that let the rear housing articulate, the axle pins, the 2 rectangular pieces that go on the end of the frame before the rear counter weight, and what ever goes on the back side of the bottom step I guess I will make that. There are some things you can't really make and have them right . Had to JB weld 2 steps because of the once again flimsy construction and because of having to take it apart 3 time to get it right. O Ya the dozer as I am going along I find out there are 2 different ways to hang the cylinders for the front blade and you have to check what pieces you have to see how it is put together of course this is in 2 different places in the manual one in the middle of the manual and the other is at the end. There is one other thing that bothers me the two way tape that holds the rear weight on now that spectacular they couldn't figure out a way to affix that with screws. It's been fun. Ed

Well here is an up date. Got no parts yet but I ordered another complete track for one side and have decided that when I get all the parts for both models I am going to make a high track out of the dozer. Getting rid of the aluminum sides and going with steel sides. This will hold the motors and sprocket more stable. Ed
