Can anyone tell me what other machines have blades that interchange with a D8L? Just bought one that has worked in a chip yard with a 14 foot blade and am wanting a straight blade for grading type work. I am also in the market for a winch, so any information about compatibility for that would be appreciated as well. Included a picture of it sitting at the chip site as we are still awaiting delivery. Thanks, Alan
Unless someone with practical experience can say different it appears that you are limited to a blade that came originally from a D8L tractor of 53Y or 7YB S/N prefix. As far as I can see all the different blades listed for D8L are not used on any other model.
Hello nice dozer I think I looked at that online its like new and had to be a great buy very nice. all I can tell you is a cat D8l blade will fit on a cat d9r as I was searching for a semi u blade for a cat d9r that had a coal blade.
That's what I was trying to say .... speaking strictly by Part Number D8L blades of all flavours (straight, semi-u, full u, etc) are ONLY used on D8L and no other model. Of course as we all know with a little bit of ingenuity, a sharp gas axe, and a box or two of E7018 you can make almost you can make almost anything fit whatever you want it to fit ........
