Homemade dozer. Dozer on supersdperry

[@larryschweitzer4904]

A lot of work, best done for the self satisfaction, not the end result. My Dad had an excavation company. I grew up in it. Ran my first dozer @ 15. Ran Dad's company for awhile. Cat gave me 3 days of training & a tour of their facilities in Ill. Dad had 4 dozers, two D8s, a D9 & a TD25 plus all the support equipment including scrapers, front end loaders & a dredge. Interesting business. That was a long time ago. Often wished I had stayed in it. I'm at the end of my life now, so wishing doesn't do any good. Always do what you enjoy.

[@stacyp4534]

Thanks. I just sold my Allis chambers HD-4 dozer. Kind of regretting it but oh well

[@larryschweitzer4904]

@@stacyp4534 My Dad's first loader was an HD5 about 1950. In 5 years head had 5 of them. Bought one HD6 and it was plagued with problems. Made the switch to CAT. Had one IH loader that started on gas and switched to diesel after a short warm up. The best thing that ever happened to loaders was the power shift.

Carolina Homesteaders thanks a million

[@jyeames]

Very nice! I've had three Strucks over the years. One belt drive and two 4 speeds. The belt drive was back in the mid 70's when you bought a kit and put it together (including a ton of 1/4-20 grouser/track bolts) The belt drive went straight and actually was far more usable than the later models which used a differential and constant steering correction. Always wanted to build a hydraulic one from scratch though. You did a great job and it looks to be far more rugged than a struck!

[@stacyp4534]

Thank you. I looked at the struck/magnatracks and the old school like the kitty track and others but everything I found was expensive. I looked at a I think it’s called a mead speed track. Finally in the end I just built one. It was a very difficult decision at the time. A lot of sleepiness nites during the build trying to figure stuff out that wasn’t working correctly. I still plan to do an improvement on it. I want to use 2 hydraulic pumps and change the configuration of a few things. It works great as is but I like to mess with it. Watch for the next improvement to it. Again thanks

[@shortthrow50]

Looks like it was under engineered from the get go. Started out as a fun project experiment. But the first run had a small ass lawn mower engine and couldn’t do anything in the dirt. Now a decent diesel was put into it. Only problem with that is the rest of the chassis and rest of the build isn’t meant for the torque, so it will start breaking and falling apart if you use it for actual hard pushing for work.

[@stacyp4534]

You could be correct. I’m not trying to sound like a smart a$$ but if you have plans send me a copy I will attempt to build accordingly and test the durability of your design. I said from the beginning I’m no engineer.

[@garychandler4296]

@@stacyp4534 Not true IMO. I have a little Craftsman-branded L1000 lawn mower I bumped up from 20" lawn tires to 22" ATV tires filled with water and alcohol, 75lbs of barbell weights on the back and a Dozer blade made from an old water heater and bedframe angle iron. Goes up and down with a long handle, angles left and right by a pin rack. It was for snow, but I've pushed trash, gravel, mulch, rocks, snow, my massive leaf windrows, and my trailers around. I put a roller skate wheel on a metal bar and clamped that to a steering wheel spoke for power and speed steering, a cable and pulley to lift the grass chute up out of the way and to toss waste farther (it still mows; had to relocate the deck forward to clear the big tires) and a drink holder and fender handles for steep slopes. Basically now a lawn tractor!

[@davidevans6528]

Beautiful dozer you've created! You say you're not an engineer. That's good because engineers don't care about component accessibility after the beast is assemble. They often create maintenance and repair nightmares. You could teach Caterpillar a thing or two. Well done!

[@RANDALLOLOGY]

From scratch to reality, that was awesome. That Yanmar diesel did the trick for power.

[@dozer1642]

It sure is cool that you designed and built this all yourself. When I saw the thumbnail I too thought it was a struck. I’ve read your replies below and will echo some of the things said without being critical, just maybe to help someone else that is gonna try to tackle a similar build. There are a few designs inherent to bulldozers that might not be so obvious- First is the pivot point for the blade push arms. They should extend under the machine or along the side of the tracks to about the center of your track frames. This allows a more constant blade angle throughout the arc of travel and it keeps the tracks planted for better traction. Second is the blade angle. The blade shouldn’t be laid back. It should be nearly vertical. I applaud you for having the tenacity to finish this little dozer, you did a great job.

Just spotted this old video and don't know if you will see it or not. A real fine job of addressing several little details. The electric over hydraulic fuel system/throttle system might be better with a dial cable and push release button in center to come to idle. Could feather the power to the tracks a little easier but then you have thought of that too as nothing I can think of that you wouldn't already know... for all I know, you wore it out having fun on it. Be a nice little unit for confined spaces

[@stacyp4534]

Dave Kimbler it’s fixing to go through a total rebuild. It has a 35 horsepower kubota in it. It’s way to much power so I run it at an idle. Makes it very slow. I’m tearing it down and putting a 20 horse Perkins diesel in it. Im also going to change the gearing in the final drives. There’s going to be a few more changes like the lift cylinder in the front stuff like that. I’ll document it all.

[@davekimbler2308]

That sound like you put a lot of though into it so far ! A Perkins is a nice choice and a Yanmar would also be good . The hydraulics in the video seemed fine but you had to be there to tell for sure . I was just making a wise ass comment in that I would love to have it to plow my snow ! That’s why I said a cab and heat also . It’s fabulous as it sits in my opinion. Cant wait to see more videos!

@@stacyp4534 , what a great job you did on this, glad I watched to the end to see the upgraded engine, leave the engine alone, just work on gearing, that power will be useful one day!!

[@stacyp4534]

This dozer was built several years ago. I would have never put it on KZbin but somehow someone from somewhere posted a video and attacked me saying it was a struck that I was claiming I had built. In an effort to defend myself I put this video up. This was built as a toy. It still has issues as everything built this fashion will have. I have been dealing with them as I can. If you notice the three cylinder yanmar turned into a 4 cylinder kubota. The 3 cylinder had a leaking injector pump I couldn’t get the crush washers and I thought it had locked up while I was running it, so I put the 4 cylinder in it. Turns out the hydraulic tank I had built had a little metal ball in it from welding and the hydraulic pump ate it locking it up. Wasn’t the motor but I had already switched it. I put a filter in front of the pump but that makes everything work about half the speed it should. Also I have to run this big motor at an idle which slows it to almost a snails pace. The pump is 20 gallons per minute at 3600 rpm. I’m running it at about 900 rpms. Radiator is for a Honda Civic car which isn’t big enough after a while the motor slowly creeps up and gets hot. Most parts came from surpluscenter.com New plan is to remove the filter before the hydraulic pump. Remove the kubota and put a 20 horsepower Perkins diesel in it. Put a 1 to 1 gear box and run 2 hydraulic pumps, a pump for each drive motor. Pull off the final drives and change the gearing make it slightly faster. It’s all metal so I can cut and weld and it doesn’t matter. It’s just metal. You just remove what you don’t want and weld what you do want.

[@tigra8559]

Well done sir! First thing i thought different motor it needs..and voila..Nice toy 😎😀

[@stacyp4534]

There was always a filter on the return to the hydraulic tank. I added the other filter after the pump ate a piece of metal. I’m taking it back off though

Having been a bulldozer mechanic for almost sixty years I would just like to make a constructive comment, if you ever build another one or modify this one your blade arms should be attached to the track frames about half way along. It gives you better control with the blade and better pushing power because the arms at a lower level and are not inclined to let the blade dig in and takes the stress away from the superstructure. A great job. Regards Bob W

[@stacyp4534]

Bob W yea I’ve had a lot of people say that. I’m fixing to rebuild the whole thing maybe I’ll move that hinge point.
