Mini Dozer Cub
 
3 Attachment(s)
I bought this 125 and Kanga loader bucket for cheap, I think it will be a great project to build a mini dozer with.
This being my first Cub, I know little about it, I have found free manuals online for operators, service and hydraulics.
I will also be building a back hoe for it, as well as tracks.
It will be a long term project so bear with me and over time I will post pics as I make progress.

You read my mind.

But, a cub dozer is no small project so maybe he's planning on something MASSIVELY cool? I see the need for a GM 2.8L swap!

(Day dreaming with other people's time and money again).

The 2.8 tends to fit better because its a 60 degree V. Not that any car V6 is going to "fit". :) Seems like anything approaching 100hp will be PLENTY to pick the bucket up.

Solid thought, but we're dreaming bigger with his time and money.

CUMMINS 4 cyl diesel? :ThumbsUp:

Kubota makes bigger motors than the 4B..... I didn't say WHICH 4cyl! :biggrin2:
Although, if I was going to go that big, the 4BT would be my motor of choice. Can't go wrong with a Cummins! :biggrin2:

duh! :bash2:

You read my mind on the particular Cummins... Roll coal and chooo-chooo!

When a 4B is total overkill, resort to 4BT.

Yuh know... I realize that cubs are built heavy and all but big horsey power won't beef up the frame, front axle, spindles, tie rod/ends, and steering column :bigthink: He could turn it into a miniature Honey Bee lol

Maxwelhse 07-11-2014 01:59 AM

If he's building a real dozer all of that stuff is out the window anyhow. :)

Honey bee might be good!
