I pulled the old dozer off the shelf for a bit of playtime, it was the founding member of JBC and is really showing its age.
forgot how slow the blade rams were so they will be swapped for faster ones.
will make a whole new base and install tensioners for the tracks, also will nut and bolt track pads as pop rivets don't last.
will also fit 2 more rams so I can tilt the blade, then a paint job.

any way heres a quick video of how bad it is.

ok, so the king hauler finally has a reduction box, 4:1 fitted.
problem was when hauling a heavy load I had no steering, it was suggested that I make a dolly trailer, had a spare flat deck doing nothing .
end result after 40 minutes is an average looking dolly, but I have steering.
will clean it up and paint, I can now haul the excavator and loader no worries.

sorry about the photo , its late and dark here.
