Default Re: mining truck and dozer conversion. first atempt.

and some on the progess of the dozer

how it started and stripped down










gear box fitted, drive shafts will be trimmed later



The plan is to convert the orginal blade lift rams to screw drive. I bought two small servo's to fit behind the blade. The still have 2/3 of the torque of a standard servo but are much smaller, i'm hoping the two together will have enough power to operate the blade ok. I've done a bit more work on them i'll post more pictures later if anyone has any interest.

Keep us informed on both builds. Lots of pics. I for one enjoy conversions.
