Did Cat ever make a pull behind scraper for a D2?

From all the info I have ever seen. literature I have, etc., the smallest scraper Cat ever marketed was the #40, meant to be pulled with the D4. I think there were smaller units available from other suppliers, as I've seen some in Eric Orleman's books on Caterpillar. One that sprung to mind was made by Murray, and is owned by Ed Akin, if memory serves.
Hope this helps,

Alan is correct about the "off brand" scrapers that were available. There were quite a few of them. The Cat 40 will make a D4 scratch for all it is worth and would be too much for a D2 unless you were only trying to fill the bowl less that half full. :eek:
