Can anyone tell me the difference on a D6R ser # 5ln to a D6R ser # 9BM dozer ?
I cant see any difference, thought it may be the origin or weight.

Would the 9bm have sae or common metric hoses & fittings. We got a machine with British standard threads & it was a might mare.

I would like to point out that in the U.K. we have to suffer with every sort of pipe fitting, its not worth listing them as it would take to long but you should see some of the odd stuff we have to sort through, BSP JIC and SAE are easy to work around.
