So guys what rpm do you guys run in your custom dozer projects?
I got to replace one in my dozer project and was like may get two new ones
Instead of just one. Let me know. Right now I'm using 124 rpms and thing of going to
98 maybe 56 , what yell think?

On my Oliver I am using planetary gear motors at 52rpm, and I like to use the dual rate switch and slow down to about half that speed on full stick forward while pushing, then full speed to reverse.

I think I'm pushing 25-30 rpm on final drive with the d11. Also depends on how big your sprocket is. But for a starting point, and smaller dozers run a little speeder.
