    tractor pans or scrapers which do you like better

    Heres something to think about. If Cat doesnt think that the tractor and scraper combo will not work. Why would Cat come out with a scraper Tractor and Why would Cat buy the Eject Scraper company? Everyone on here has a good valid point, but from here in MO the tractor and scraper option...
