Bulldozer and 3/4 ton truck

I've always been horrified of getting a dozer stuck. ...

Me too. I haven't gotten mine stuck.....yet......:laughing::laughing:

Yeah, or technically pyramid tracks. The P designation in D20p is for the tracks it came with. Down here most people call it swamp tracks. My buddy said they had an old case with 36" tracks years ago! He said they were really too wide though, they cut them down and it still did fine in the nasty stuff.

I was going to ask the same question, to me they would not be considered swamp tracks not wide enough, thanks for the clearity

You've never been stuck until you've gottin a tracked machine stuck. When they are stuck they become quite useless:laughing: One thing I learned, once they start to become stuck, STOP EVERYTHING, get off take 5 and figure away out. I've seen many folks try to unstick a dozer like they would their vehicle or tractor, what they don't relize is they're making a bad situation 10fold worse.

Yeah I think it's all relative to the size of the machine. These tracks are 20" wide but the tractor weighs less than 10,000#, very LGP. I've read that they use them in the rice paddies overseas.
