Recently purchased my first Cletrac ADH Dozer. Not a bad machine but it seems it is geared a bit high for a dozer. 1st gear moves quite fast for pushing dirt. Seems like it is geared as a Ag tractor. Any way to lower the gear range?

dont know of any way to lower the gear ratio, that is one the drawbacks to most oliver / cletrac crawlers ,they are geared to high for dozer work.

Only some are geared too high - the ones that were made for farm tractors.

The tractors with the 6 speeds - 4 forward, 2 reverse are geared low enough.
My gramps Howard van Driest was Experimental Engineer at Cletrac and Oliver Corporation. After the plant closed, he and my uncle started an excavating business, initially using Cletrac and Oliver Crawler tractors.

How do you tell the difference between the two? Someone has a AD2H  4N92 for $1,500. Its pretty rough but runs great and tracks are fair. Someone put in a Chevy 6 cylnder. Is that common? This one has a home-made dozer blade attached. Looking to push dirt around the place not a collector. THX Dean
