    Always wanted a d6r

    It’s been repaired on that right push arm. No doubt. She’s not perfect but I’m not ether and I’m older that it. I can fix whatever it might need. But no more than I need to run it it should last me a while from what I’ve seen so far from it. The other side push arm hasn’t been welded on...

    Dead John Deere 855

    Lots of good info guys. That early hystat isn’t anything special on them. Now days maybe. But these old 55 series Deere cost more than they are worth to fix on the hystat side of things. My 855 will not push with my d6r and it’s got another 10k pounds on it. According to gauges everything...

    Finally found one to keep around the farm. Finally found one. I was scared they had put lipstick on a pig. But so far so good. Could use rails and pads I know. Came with a new set of sprockets. But it was worth the money.

    Looks to be a pretty decent machine. (As far as undercarriage looks). They are good machines when everything is right. They expensive machines when it’s not right lol. Edit…also a pain in the rear when they aren’t right.

    What’s a d6c worth.

    So basically it’s like every thing else. It’s worth whatever someone will pay in this day and age. Lol

    Resetting the beads and airing up 24.5 semi tires

    Aluminum wheels? Probably need a wire wheel taken to them around the bead. They are bad about corrosion. Jack the truck up, air cannon and you should be good if it’s leaking around the beads. It Stays stashed on the farm. Melted 6 pistons last fall during harvest. I out of framed it last...
