Post by Paul45 » Mon Aug 29, 2011 9:52 am

Hello, just bought another 350 dozer. by the serial # its a 1965 has a reverser and six way hyd. blade and tee handle controls. this machine has a longer track base then my 1966, 5 rollers and an idler.
could someone tell me the differance and which one they think is better? also will the blades inter change? Thanks for your input.
thanks Paul

They were available with 4 or 5 rollers, all 5 rollers had an upper idler. The 5 roller crawler will have more surface area for flotation, and has a longer footprint, so will be more stable. 6 way blade on a 4 roller would be a pain I would think, too tippy.
