A powerful, low-hour 2018 Caterpillar D7R XL dozer — the legendary, tough-as-nails Cat production dozer that operators worldwide trust for its simplicity, reliability and brute pushing power. With only 6,400 hours, this is a genuinely low-hour example. Powered by the proven Cat C9 ACERT engine delivering 240HP, and importantly in the sought-after NON-DPF / NON-ADBLUE configuration — no emissions-system hassles, just simple, reliable running. Set up for serious work with an SU (Semi-Universal) blade for high-volume dozing and a 4-barrel (3-shank) genuine CAT MS ripper for tearing into the hard stuff. The tag-link blade mounting and elevated-sprocket undercarriage deliver excellent balance, penetration and durability. Comes with a fresh 250-hour service, comprehensive workshop report, and a 3-month Makin Traks powertrain warranty. Prepared through our brand-new purpose-built facility on the Sunshine Coast QLD. Ready to earn from day one.
NON-DPF / NON-ADBLUE — a genuine advantage: This D7R is the non-DPF, non-AdBlue (non-DEF) configuration with the proven Cat C9 ACERT engine — no diesel particulate filter, no forced regens, no DEF to buy or store, and fewer emissions-system electronics to fail. No power-robbing derates, no filter blockages, just simple and reliable running — especially valuable for remote, mining and heavy-duty work where uptime is everything. On a machine this size, that reliability is worth serious money.
Only 6,400 Hours — genuinely low: For a D7R production dozer, 6,400 hours is genuinely low — these machines are built to work many thousands of hours, so the next owner gets years of productive life ahead with plenty of undercarriage and drivetrain life remaining. A low-hour, non-DPF D7R is a rare and valuable find.
SU Blade + 4-Barrel MS Ripper — set up to work: The SU (Semi-Universal) blade combines the material-carrying capacity of a universal blade with the penetration and pushing power of a straight blade — the production operator’s choice for moving serious volume. Paired with a 4-barrel (3-shank) genuine CAT MS ripper, this machine can rip hard ground, rock and compacted material and then push it in one pass. A genuinely productive, ready-to-work configuration.
