Dozer Weights

[possum300d]

Hi everyone.

My brother has expressed interest in getting himself an old dozer but we're not certain which machine would suit best. We're in the UK so the choice is limited and due to tow weight legislation the machine cant be any heavier than 13,000kg (28660 lb).

So, is anyone aware of any database with machine weights as the models differ quite a bit??? This would at least help us narrow the choices down.

Regards

Anyone got any advice regarding this?

Think he's going to look at an old (very ) D3 this week. Fraid i dont know what year or any other information at the moment.

The D3 is just a wee dozer... well under the the weight you are limiting yourself too

Cool. Thanks for the link.

From looking at that am I safe to say he could venture up to D5 size or similar? Would age of machine make much difference to the weight?
