    I was a heavy equipment Cat mechanic from c 1971 until the late '80s. I worked for Alban Tractor in the Sprinfield area of VA. Around '76 the company treated all the mechanics to the ConExpo in Chicago. The largest machines Cat had there were a 988 and a 777 off-highway truck; it had two small pick-up trucks side-by-side in the dump bed. The biggest machine I saw there was a Hough International rubber-tired loader with a 21-yard bucket, powered by twin diesels. There was also an impressive excavator that could dig down to 90', but I can't remember the manufacturer's brand. It was for me an unforgettable experience.

    I've hauled the 1050 for 1year and it's a badass machine. Sitting at an angle is unusual but cool. 13'11" wide on the blade allows for a no car pilot.

    @MrDriftspirit 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    those guys know their business... absolutely professional! the way to upsaddle the lowbed on the dolly is tecnical much more easy, needs much less hydraulic hoses and installations, but works only great in dry conditions when the truck has traction under his tyres. in icy or muddy conditions would be a big problem without strrong pushing help..

  • @leighmackay7486

    I appreciate the time and effort required to share videos. Thank you for this one featuring excellent technical quality and camera handling. The video lets us see something you don't see everyday. How else would a regular person get the chance to see how this type of logistics is handled?
    An important item of note for me is the back-up beepers-or lack thereof. The bulldozer is using the much more world friendly type that is slowly finding increasing use. This type is area specific (directly behind the machine) and set to reasoned level. For way too long the world has been subjected to warnings that a vehicle three blocks away is backing up. Note that the truck isn't using a beeper at all. Somehow, everyone lived to see another day. Only the micro sized fork lift is fitted with an old school screamer. I feel better for unloading. Thx.
    Cheers from Vancouver, BC.

    About 20 years ago I hauled an 8866 koehring excavator that was close to this machines size. We took the dipper stick arm and bucket off and loaded the arm on another lowboy, the bucket into a 14 yard dump truck. I hauled the machine. It took two miles to get up too speed of 55, and a mile and a half to slow down! the machine weighed about 165,000 lbs without the arm and scoop bucket. Needless to say, I was nervous!

    That may have the HP of a D9 (nope the D9 has about 110 more HP) but it doesn't have the size, at least to my eyes. The high track D9's I've seen are larger in size than this John Deere and weigh in at 108,000 pounds depending on how it's setup. This John Deere has 350 HP and tips the scale at a lighter 95,000 pounds. All figures come from company production figures. Anyway, when I first saw it my first reaction was that this is more the size of a D8 but after checking what those weigh honestly and weight wise, it's between the D8 and the D9. It is an impressive and good looking machine nonetheless.

    As a former heavy hauler type person, I truly find the need for flags on blade ect (Required in all states that I have been through) don't any good. Most people should notice the tractor, the lowboy and the Giant half-million dollar plus yellow thing on top of the lowboy. Piolet, escort rigs a must, yes on them. Little flags a waving in the breeze? Buy the time you see those, bit late for the automobile, Make a handy marker for the truck driver at times, but blinking lights are better seen by the traffic. Keep on truckin!!!

      Darryl Tauffenbach when you haul oversized loads, you are permitted to only operate on certain routes. The state takes into consideration the size of a town, city, traffic, etc, and you will have escorts. In this particular situation, they will have besides a front and back escort, they will also have a state highway patrol leading the escort. Since this is Nevada, they more likely have a less restrictions because of their openness than say a state east of the Mississippi River would have, especially the east coast. I live in Mo., and in this state when driving through one of the bigger cities, I’m not allowed during the rush hour traffic morning or afternoon just for the sake of not having an issue with cars.

    I don't think this is a real big dozer for such a big float and I may be wrong but I think there are dozers larger than this one.

      canvids1 it's a D8 size dozer. It's made by Deere now instead of Liebherr. Not sure that's saying much IMHO

      canvids1 cat has the D11 which trumps this Tonka tow. Cat really has JD by the balls when it comes to heavy equipment. JD has the farmers market wrapped up though.

      They said this was equivalent to a D9 Cat, who make a D11 much larger

    The 1050 is more like an D8. The one I demoed couldnt push as much as our D8Rs. This was 10 years ago when they where all new. I guess you can turn them up some though. Another outfit I worked for had one that really pushed good. I bet it would keep up with an 8, but not even close to the 9R we had on site.

    Would be much easier and safer (and possibly cheaper) to construct something over the floor so that these machines could be driven in/out of the building and the truck could just unload/load them at the exterior door.

      @@hidingfromyou4455 True about bridge weights and so on, but damn.. that trailer is adding a helluva lot of weight to the whole package relative to its small load.. its still got about a foot of positive arch, trailer thinks its empty. No idea what route they had to take, but it sorta looks like someone wanted to show off their new heavy haul rig. By comparison, I used to roll off of Kansas City's Holiday sand plant with wet morning loads of 60 tons (reduced to around 45 tons later, same weight as this dozer) using only a tri-axle 34ft Travis full frame end-dump and a International 9400. We where allowed 22,400lb per axle in the "commercial zone", still a little overweight but it handled fine day after day and didnt ride the bump-stops at all or blow bags. Point is.. by any measure that trailer is way way way over-kill aside from some regulatory issue.

    You can tell he's an expert driver by how slowly and carefully he was maneuvering, inside and even when he got on the main roadway. If I had such a dozer, I would hire them to move it.
