Mike: I was at a site here in SW Ontario just a few weeks back where they were using 2 D9. One had the pusher blade and they were using it pushing scrapers. The other had a conventional dozer blade and it was dozing only.

If you notice on the D9 in your photo push beams are inside the tracks, while a conventional dozer will have push beams outside the tracks. The conventional dozer blade will not stand the concentrated presure from pushing with beams outside tracks. I didn' measure but would judge the dozer blade was 18' wide and over 6' high. Most men that walked in front of it were not as tall as blade.
