    John Deere 700j hourly rate

    No doubt. There's a few ways of looking at it. I'm thinking for my region in upper Michigan and the amount of work we have for it. I'm going to try to shoot for about 150 per hr. Maybe 165. Thanks for everyone's input. I'm always interested in hearing more

    John Deere 700j hourly rate

    Just bought a 700j dozer. Real nice machine. It's a 2006 which to me is like a rocket ship in advancement compared to what I own. What is a basic hourly rate for a machine like this? I have had lots of older big cats and small cats. I currently have a 550 G I charge 130 for per hour. And a d6c...

    D3c and d6c

    I don't want to scare you, but there's no way in hell those machines are worth monkeying with. They appear to be some of the most neglected pieces of junk I've seen. I would never clear 7 to 10 acres for those things. I wouldn't clear half an acre for those things

    CAT D6C Tilt Cylinder

    That blade is off of d7g. Not sure if that would be the info you're looking for off of that. When I get to the the blades next I will try to remember to look for you. But hey you can always buy a complete angle Blade with tilt for a d6c for me. The only catch is that comes with a dozer also!

    Help with winch identification please

    Can anyone tell me what winch is on this machine? It has no tags on it. And it's not a carco. That name is usually built right into the cast. This winch has nothing on it. Thank you

    Case dozer rough riding on new undercarriage??

    That would have been my first guess as well

    CAT D6C ID Plate on top of dash

    That's starting and maintenance instruction plate. But yeah they're cool to have. You can probably get one from a salvage yard I'm sure. Either riveted on or put it on with some self tappers would be even good enough
