4 Hour Bruder Dozer

[Espeefan]

Only 4 hours? Gezz, I think I'd have the model all broken apart and destroyed in 4 hours, let alone functional, and back together again! Those Bruders are tough to disassemble. I tried it with a Mack Granite truck, and I spent a lot of time trying to take it apart, without breaking all the tabs. I still broke at least one.

They are put together very well but the only thing I removed from this was the drive wheels and blade. This has to be the simplest Bruder conversion out there but its probably the worst for performance. Its tough to get it to do much work with the track design the way it is. I have some things I want to try but I've been sidetracked the last two evenings.

I think i have seen someone use the tracks from a bruder excavator. It looks like thats what bruder is going to use on their new model of this dozer. You thinking you want to make it push dirt? would like to see how you go about it! I hope to see more of your work, your conversions are great!

P.S. We would not be mad at you if you take your bruders and a camera out in the dirt to play and post a video up!! Not mad at all! Hehe.

Thanks for sharing!
