Eagle dozer question
Hey as some of you know I bought a rc4wd dozer on there black Friday sale. I am wondering what are some things I should keep a eye on for? I know about the dozer pins and to check all fasteners. Is there anything else a person should check out?

Re: Eagle dozer question
The breathe tube off the hydro tank leaks like a sieve if your operating at a decent side angle or roll the sucker. I replaced the tubing with a pressure relief valve such as found on the 4200XL. You'll have to grind the tank cover a bit. Fill tube is on left and overfill is on right looking from back of dozer. Also if your planning on running lights this would be a good time to run the rear lights.

Re: Eagle dozer question
No the hose just sits in the sponson, so if it does spill out the tube it goes everywhere. I got my decals from a member on here. Believe he had a buddy make them. His handle on the forum is Papy. Pm him. It's a bit of work to get the tank cover off. Once you remove the cab do your self a favor and remove the tracks cause you have to access small coutersunk screws under the fender above the sprocket to get it off.

Re: Eagle dozer question
Ok got my dozer home from my local hobby shop. The pins just tap then out with a punch? It was painfully slow to fill oil in it must be the hose or somthing. I wanna take it apart and take a look at everything put it looks good so far.

Re: Eagle dozer question
Yea I use a punch. Watch as your filling the tank. You can just keep filling the sucker and it'll pour out that crappy "relief" tube, then you'll have oil dripping through the sponson/fender.
