Quick "Mock-up", plenty of wiring and electronics to install.

Looking good! I have never seen one of these before! Your powder-coating skills are awesome! Looking forward to some video of it in the dirt!

That's sharp, Mitch. Might I ask where you got the hydraulic hose protectors? I'm pretty sure those didn't come in my kit! I'm curious why the perforated metal, on the right side of the machine, is bolted to the side panel.

Great job Mitch, can I ask where you have put the battery and what size you used, I know with mine the space is limited when the electronics go in. I have put two Tamiya packs together to give me 10,000ma but I have no room for a speaker.

Amazing job. I've been considering the LR 634 but now I see what you've been able to do I feel inspired! Did you coat the track and the ripper shanks or are they bare metal? I've always been a fan of powercoating!

Hose protectors from "Harbor Frieght" spring kit. Used the metal screen as an accent (and to cover a paint flaw)

I put the battery in front of the ballast, and used two 1600 Ma batteries. Also, as you can see in the picture, I bolted a "Scale Art" speaker and box under the exhaust stack (after I cut out a hole)

The tracks and rippers are metal, with no coating. I did bead blast the tracks to dull them.

Thanks ! I decided to leave the rear cylinders and rippers bare metal to show the "Uninitiated" that the model is not a toy ( well not a plastic toy).

Hi Mitch

Great work cannot wait to see some video of it in action.
You should be proud of what you have achieved.
Regards

Mark

Nice job on the powdercoat and paint. ?? for you- you have a toggle switch inside the cab in an early pic but I do not see it in any of the last batch of pics. Is it the off/on switch? Did you find out that the cab is not a good place for it?

Great video, Mitch. One of my favorite dozers on the forum, and probably the best looking RC Deere bulldozer out there. Seems to have great traction and power too.
