Re: Pipe layer to dozer??

It's feasible, but would be a very expensive exercise, particularly on an old tractor. I once worked for a big co that converted a surplus 561C to D5 specs when it was still a current model, and remember the workshop supervisor saying afterward that they'd never do it again as it simply wasn't cost ...

Re: cat 966c

Without a doubt one of the best loaders ever built....well balanced, good to operate, no computers...they just keep going and going.

Re: CATERPILLAR 633 SCRAPER

There's a couple of new vids of the 633 from the start of the thread, this time it's moving dirt....a really straight looking machine for it's age...pity he didn't straighten the stack up though. :)

Re: Cat 631 towed elevating scrapers.

Hello Angus, did you mean 613 scraper bowls?..the 631 is an open bowl type.. the 633 is the elevator size equivalent of the 631. :thumbs_up:
