    If it doesn’t go back together fairly easily (relative term), I’ll cut the entire front end off an weld and plate both sides. Once the blade is off, I should be able to see the extent of the damage and make a great decision. Truth be told, I’m even more impressed with how well this dozer has...

    Looking at the rust that was there under the two or three layers of paint....I am going to assume it was cracked some time back and then the abuse I have given it over the last few months finally let it all come apart. After I pull it all apart, get it back to square and fish plate it, it will...

    Anyone else have more damage than this on the front end? Pulling the blade and heating, pulling, tacking, rinsing and repeating.

    I’ll measure tomorrow and give you a holler. Helping members that still post to forums is what keeps places like this going. Thanks bud. Doesn’t hurt you are perfect on the price. Hell, maybe I should have paid the $160 plus shipping that I was too cheap to buy.

    I ride around with 2 mechanical gauges and I keep a laser in my pocket. I promise it won’t get over a normal operating temperature before I shut it down. I have a hook up on free fans, temp sensors, solenoids. What makes running an electric fan a bad idea? PITA, yes. Bad idea, I don’t see your...

    Been removing Eastern Red Cedar to build my house. Here’s a picture and maybe a video. While pushing the stumps and trees, a small piece of cedar wedged into the fan. I figure it snapped and fell just right and broke all but one fan blade. Amazon has the fan for $160 bucks. I’d prefer to go back...

    Moved 3 out of 4 stumps today. 4th required a call to 811 to mark gas, water and sewage lines.

    I am hopefully gonna get back on it this weekend. I listed and sold a rental house in 24 hours. I hadn’t planned on cleaning it up and moving everything for a few months. I am having to rearrange my schedule and shop to accommodate. I assume the pressures are in the manual? I could also assume...

    Thanks for the reply. Strangely enough, there was some type of oil on the driver side, but not the passenger side. Possibly that cylinder might be locked up? Possibly, the drivers side might be leaking. I will dig in again. Thanks for a new idea/thought to check.

    I’ve read the entire post, downloaded the manual and have been using it. Here’s my question. I have a d20a-6. I replaced the clutches on the steering side. Hooked up brakes and noticed the linkages both need adjustment to get back into spec. The passenger side clutch is not engaging at all...

    Thank you so much, I’m on page 20 & that will save me reading a bunch I don’t need right now. Still gonna plug away at it though. Thanks once again.

    I'm still reading all 117 pages, but thought I'd toss this up here and see if anyone can save me the three hours needed to read everything. I'd rather read it at my leisure than skim through and miss thing I will need in the future. On to my question. I had power to the left track and the right...
