Hey guys! I'm looking forward to get the first gear's komatsu 960e mining truck, I want to ask for pics to see how big it is! Would it fit with the letourneau l1850..???? Or maybe a liebherr 9800 would be a better partner? Thanks and have a nice day!

Unfortunately I can't provide any photo's but the 960 is about the same size as the Norscot Cat 797F. Either the L1850 or the 9800 Liebherr should work perfect with it.

L1850 is a little small for a 960E, we run L2350's to load our 930E haul trucks onsite Here it is up against an 830E

ERFE1630, According to the Joy Global/LeTourneau website: http://www.phmining.com/en/PHMining/Mining-Equipment/WheelLoaders/L-1850.htm".....the L-1850 is designed to center-load most haul trucks with payload ratings of 240-360 ton (218-327 tonne). According to the Komatsu website: http://www.komatsuamerica.com/mining/electric-trucks/960e-2"The 3,500 hp Ultra class 960E-2 has the capacity to carry 280 yd3 or 360 tons of material." In theory, according to the specifications of both machines from the respective websites, the LeTourneau L-1850 wheel loader should be able to load the Komatu 960 truck. The operative word here may be, "most" regarding the LeTourneau L1850 wheel loader. Randy M. Smolenack RMSmodels@aol.comrandy.m.smolenack.civ@mail.milrandy.m.smolenack.civ@mail.mil

I'll think you'd find it would be a high lift spec L1850 which means you loose bucket capacity, more passes required, I'd be surprised to see any mine using the combo

Thanks a lot for the comments guys! Really appreciate you took some time to give information. Now. I know that it's almost like a 797 I'd love to get it but wasn't sure about its specs. That 830 looks like an awesome partner for the letourneau. Did you add some details? Looks outstanding!!!

Looks outstanding!!! thanks, yes the 830E was modified to match an autonomas haul systems (AHS) spec truck by a local collector for which are run at WA Iron Ore mine I put a little thread up awhile back, planning to have WA1200 to match shortly ;) http://forums.dhsdiecast.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=136877
