[Cooper]

Hey mark, I just realized why the bumper and grill are red, we must have had one of the red tool carts in front of it and that the reflection in the polished parts!!!

[Claus]

Did you end up having these larger bumpers milled down on the trucks that had no ground clearance?

[ihbuilder]

Craig , yes , I can make 1.5" out of my 2" if someone desires . they will not be available with lights or recess for lights do to not being a stock part for me .

Both bumpers are nice but I love the shorter version!

Claus-

YES it does have a removable gooseneck. With a little work you can make it remote detach.

swapped out the rc4wd 65 turn for a stock motor with doggy's gru now the truck is running at a walking pace MUCH better

[Kausekaos]

Didn't we agree on FB you cant post pictures anymore. lol I want a lowboy for the daycab I'm building again.

[bigford]

Go with the Rc4wd unless you can find a used pmd one
It's only $$$

[Claus]

I emailed RC4WD this week, I want one of those lowboys too, they said they should be back in stock in a couple weeks. Also wanting the DXR2 dozer to have something to haul! Bigford, you're killing me!

[bigford]

[bigford]

Yeah those are nice. The guy who has the green & black one on here, that one is nice.

[Claus]

BTW, RC4WD told me the DXR2 is too heavy for that lowboy and you can't use the trailer for that dozer. That dozer weighs 57 pounds, what do you think they would say about your dozer???

Probably just playing it on the safe side telling customers not to load em too much. I wouldn't stand on mine but I think it's strong enough to carry 100 lbs loads with it's aluminum frame. My 4200 must weigh pretty close to what Eagle's dozer weighs with my steel counter weight. I have no where to store the 4200 so it sits on the trailer all the time without any issues just had to change out the tire foams for some harder ones as the one's that come with the trailer are far too soft to handle heavier loads.

[bigford]

That's funny!!! D11 is only 90 pounds empty

[Claus]

On a side note can somebody explain this to me? In the description of the DXR2 Dozer it says;


Dead Weight: 26kg / 57LBs
Total Mass Load: 37kg / 82LBs

Is "Total Mass Load" Shipping Weight with the Crate, Dozer, Radio etc?
