The weakest link on the dry steering clutch dozer/loaders are the steering clutches..You can test them for slippage if you pull a steering lever back and stand on the brake at the same time. The dozer should pull way down or stall if they're in working order.Try the other side too.. If the machine stops moving and engine rpm's remain high it's showing slippage in the oposite side that the lever is being pulled..Also check for cracks in the main engine frames.. These extend from the hard nose to the final drive housings..Look for broken / missing bolts associated with the frames and clutch housing side and underneath bolts..Check oil levels..
