D9L Impact Ripper

The standard version of our upcoming Caterpillar D9L Track-Type Tractor in 1:48 scale die-cast will be equipped with an impact ripper.  The Caterpillar D9L Impact Ripper featured a hydraulically actuated shank which delivered powerful impluses, fracturing the rock before penetrating and moving through it.
