Will it Start? Old John Deere Bulldozer
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- In this video I repair an old Dozer, it’s a John Deere 2010 Crawler from the early 60s.
I had been looking at many different bulldozers, Case, Caterpillar John Deere and even a Komatsu. All needed a bit of work and were priced fairly high. I ended up get this old Machine from my friend to repair and use on my property clearing land and pushing dirt.

Yes just when I thought mike festiva Ville couldn't get any better he gives us this wonderful video
Thanks man! 🙂👍
What a sweetheart of a little crawler! Seems very capable and in pretty good shape for her age. Thanks for this video.
Just a little water in-er, probably woulda burned off 😂
Those HF pneumatic nailer and staplers are great 👍 I've had mine for YEARS! Did my camper seats and a couple chairs no problem among other things.
Dig the music too! 👍👍
Thanks for checking out my new video man! Yes the HF stuff works pretty good, I actually re did the seats in my camper as well with one.
Haha how about that water 😂
Wow! After seeing how much water was in that engine I didn't think it'd ever run. Great job getting it going again, very impressive!
Nice score Mike, what a great little unit for your property dirt work needs, looking forward to seeing what you are able to accomplish with it. Win-Win for you and your buddy, I am sure he will receive it back when you are done in a condition that is far better than it was when you took it on for it's third life resurrection. Nice to see these old gems kept in operating condition to provide useful and reasonably priced opportunities for industrious people.
Thanks for checking out my new video Bob! It definitely will go back to my friend in much better shape 👍 Good old Iron 🙂
I would rarely consider lending out such a machine but in this case i would as you, like me, are the kind of guy that looks after things & it is in safe trust worthy hands.
Awesome video. I love seeing old equipment brought back from the dead and given the love they deserve.
Thanks for checking out my new video! Yes definitely nice to start fixing this old Dozer up! 👍
If you ask me, everyone needs a buddy Dave, and a buddy Mike in their life! I have a friend give me a old welder under the promise I can never sell it, if im done with it I have to gift it to someone else in need.
I don't about a Dave but definatly a Miike lol
Definitely! Dave has been a really good friend 👍 I have known him for well over half my life, he is an awesome friend 🙂
Cool to see the old iron getting revitalized!
Definitely 🙂👍
Mike, Mick here. If it had been newer Model with computer module it would have been a nightmare to get it running. Got to love the older machinery.😀
Definitely! These old machines will probably outlast most modern computer controlled heavy equipment 👍
Wow! That is CRAZY that it has withstood that much abuse/age/neglect and still just fires right up. That gallon+ of water in the crankcase and the cylinder full of water... They sure don't make them like they used to! Cool video. Thanks Mike!
Thanks for checking out my new video Dave! These old machines were definitely built well!
The best part of this dozer is the skidding winch on the back. You will definitely use that on your property. Also I recommend Anderson connectors on all batteries for heavy equipment. That way you can easily charger or remove the battery after use.
The winch is really stout! We got it going years ago to test if it worked or not.
The winch does work but the small master cylinder and hydraulic slave cylinder needs some lathe work, the components have some rust pitting but I think I will be able to make some new parts and hopefully get it repaired. 🙂👍
It’s really good that you have good friends like that mike but ya know I’m not surprised your a great guy and you help your friends and take care of their stuff and bring it back to them better than how you got it, that’s what friends are for to help each other when in need , great video mike I love those old dozers it’s amazing how tough they are 😊
I used to have a 1961 1010 gas dozer , loved it
Awesome man 👍🙂
When I was a kid in the 60s it seemed every farm in Ohio had a little crawler like this. They were small enough for the agricultural dealers to sell and easy enough to transport. We had mostly gravel roads where I lived and it was common to see track marks running along the road.
Mostly the little guys sat, too slow for field work and too small for any work of substance.
You are right, small dozers are way over priced for what they are. Most were parked for a reason. Many were broken due to being used for more than they were designed but usually just poor maintenance.
You have a nice little machine there and a wonderful friend to let you use it. Of course it came with some sweat equity, LOL!
Enjoy, be safe. Remember no cutting across slopes. Those cleats don't hold very well sideways, personal experience.
Looking forward to seeing your next episode!
Cheers
Terry
Thanks for checking out my new video Terry! Good reading your comment, also thanks for the advice about side hilling 👍🙂
I know your "friend" he's a good guy. I gave him a 12" rotary table last year.. I'm sure you'll get some service from this machine, and leave it "better than you found it". It's nice to know some people that help old friends out, just because ...
Hey Aaron it’s good to hear from you! Thanks for checking out my video man 🙂 Dave is definitely a good guy 👍
Ps it was nice seeing you and your family out camping, that Van you got is awesome!
Back in the mid to late 70's our neighbor ran JD dozers and track loaders. 350's, 450's and 555 loaders. In those days that was pretty much the go to machines for excavation before excavators became the norm. He was a farm boy from Manitoba and one hell of an operator. He could dig a basement foundation in a day or two and be dead nuts level. A surveyor doubted him one time and said he couldn't get within 3" from level. When Ed was done he was within 3/4" across the whole basement. That surveyor was amazed and never opened his dig mouth again.
Awesome story man! That’s pretty good skills for sure 🙂👍
@@Mikefestiva yeah he was pretty impressive. The company transitioned to using excavators and he was a natural with them too. I was just a teen then and would go with him on the weekends and hang off the side of the machines. One day I asked him how accurate he was with it since they'd only had them for a couple years. He handed me a quarter and said to set it on a 4" alder stump about 15 feet away. He reached over with the bucket and with one tooth he bumped the stump plopping the quarter onto the tooth. Then he pulled the bucket in towards the track where my lunch box was sitting and give it a flick. Tossed the quarter into my lunch box. As a teen I was very impressed by this. I guess I'll tell these stories till I'm gone from this world. Lol.
There a tough old Dozer ..Great job getting up and runnin. And Great Video...
Thanks Thomas! It definitely has some life in it still 👍 Good old Dozer!
What a nice little dozer……..hope it holds up. Very enjoyable video 👍
Thanks man 🙂👍
Nice you could bring this old girl back to life for a few more good years! Also nice that you have a friend that you have no problems dealing with lending stuff in this situation that you did.
Big boy toys are really not toys 👍👍😎👍👍. Did you really imagine when you were playing with that Tonka dozer at the age of 8 you would be able to smell the dirt when you were older? 😜 Mike, all the best to you.
Thanks Joel! Definitely fun to use full size Tonka dozers 😂
I have the exact machine. 1964 2010 crawler. Mine has a 6 way blade. I got it for free from a friend down the creek. Hadn't ran for 12 years, said if I could get it running I could have it. Well 2 hours and it was mine. Don't turn right very well, and is starting to run rough, I thinks it's a bad return fuel line, might even need an overhead done. All and all I love it. Would like the ripper set up that one has tho.
Dont understand how i missed this. This is great buddy. Have fun with your dozer!
Thank you 👍
Great job, Mike!!! Something cool and different in your channel!!!
Thanks Milton! Yes it’s definitely fun to do something a bit different to keep things fresh 👍🙂
Super nice old dozer Mike! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
Cool to see it running!
Worth mentioning, that you have an organized job structure.👍
There is a timing process when adjusting the steer clutches. Make sure you are disengaging the pressure plate just before the brake band starts to apply. Relining the brake band requires pulling the final drive I would avoid letting it ware in if you can.
Yes you are correct you have to adjust the clutch to release before the brake band is applied tha is how mike and I adjusted them they are working much better now
1964 a very very fine vintage if I do say so my 58 yr old self as of yesterday Dec 9th,tyvm..😁. I've never ran a dozer that small before but have an hour or 1000+ in D9 and D8s as well as one ancient Case or something I've forgotten the brand... But still that one sounds solid and good to go,can't feel the drives or trans but it appears to be rock solid other than thin treads...
Feed that machine really good fuel and fluids!!! Listen to it when its working, it will tell you what it needs. Great fun!!
I like your hole cutting template. I have a couple old clip boards laying around.
I made those a few months back, they work pretty good 👍 they
cool old dozer
I came here for the bulldozer and left with HOBO DAVE 1985.
Thank you Mike!
Right on man👍 Dave has some great music! He also has a YT channel with some good positive videos posted 🙂
The old machines are the best! May not have power and ability of the newer models but they are way cheaper to keep running!
Thanks for putting the energy into this Deere and keeping it alive!
Another great episode Mike 🍻👍. I really dig,,
pun intended 🤣,
these get em running videos who ever makes them. Test that monster winch 🤷♂️. Standing by for the next installment.
Cheers 🍻, G.
The winch works but the master cylinder for the winch control needs to be rebuilt
Old machines its not a matter of if its going to break down its when, i have a 1977 international 175 and when i use it i just use it like it was brand new and when it breaks down it just say….oh yea here we go, lets fix it and carry on lol. Just have to keep some hydraulic fluid handy and a parts store worker on standby to make a hose when they blow, i have got 98% of the hoses replaced that didnt have rubber over them like that one did that you mentioned in the video. It will be laughing at you right in the middle of something you “want to do right quick” when it blows out and turn that right quick into a half a day hose change out😂. Wouldnt trade mine for one 20yrs newer though, just figuring out its likes and dislikes
That soil looks good enough to garden.
Just overhauled and painted my John Deere 2010 crawler just like yours. Has to be the most expensive overhaul kit in existence. What makes it unique is that the liners are all connected vs being independent like most.
Ok you answered my question. Was wondering if this engine has the same deck plate sleeve design as the 2010 ag tractors.
Great vid mike, its nice to see old equipment revived rather than scrapped!
Thanks Joe! Definitely nice to keep this old stuff going 🙂👍
Great stuff Mike, that will be a really useful piece of kit, I'm convinced old machines like this will be worth their weight in the future, no computer chips etc and easy to work on etc. Assuming we can find/afford fuel?!
all the best
Ian
Definitely! The lack of computers and complex sensors is definitely nice. Newer equipment is just overly complex.
*** Super good-looking frontend attachment.
*** Hope to soon see Yanmar mini excavator.
*** The new tractor seat looks really nice .
Thank you Mike. I always enjoy your laid-back videos. Such a relief from the ongoing turmoil. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Chris I really appreciate it man🙂👍
Looks like a good piece of equipment Mike. To put a positive spin on any breakdowns, they will make good video content, showing us how you fix it.
Mike.. you having fun with this old Dozer..😂😍👍👍
Awesome to see that old girl up and running again! Enjoyed watching your progress!
Thanks man 🙂👍
I like that I can thumbs up 👍 Mike’s video before I watch it. Keep on keep’n on brother
Thanks Man! 🙂👍
Haha wow look at how much water come out 🤣🤣🤣 but good to see you got it going can't wait to see more like this mate 🤠
Another great video. Don't let John Deere know you worked on that by yourself! 😂
Haha! I know 😂
That shop-made template at 13:50 is "THE CAT'S MEOW"! Brilliantly well done Mike!! I love your videos, I'm always learning something new from you. God Bless.
Glad to see you awakened it.6 years is too long for a nap.
Great job Mike! Always amazed at your ability to fix pretty much anything with a motor!
Thanks man! I really appreciate it 🙂👍
1) use the reverser for reverse only, not backdragging or pushing
2) a powerful winch on something heavy is a great thing. Very versatile.
3) dry steering clutches stick and rust. Fiber plates suck. Go sintered metal and tie the steering levers back when parked
I’ve got a John Deere 450c that I love but before it I had a TD9 international. My brother came up with the idea to hang small rippers under the dozer blade facing backwards on big 2” pins. That way they would swing up when you pushed forward and then fall down when you lifted and backed up. They worked great! And then there was no loss of motion. Push forward and rip backing up. Great video Mike!
Just got one of thos staplers on sale and it worked a treat for doing deer fencing around a raised garden bed and then I did a new seat on a wooden seat pan on an old ATC. Great advice from future Mike Festiva!
Nice that you can use it and not have to buy one! First one I learned on was a case back around 1980, was in the underground sewer business for 28 years! Great old lil dozer, congratulations man!
Thanks for checking out my new video Mark 🙂
Definitely a good old piece of equipment 👍
Good to see you keeping old real stuff alive! I really enjoyed to watch the part where you fixed it and get it running.
If i would get my hands on one machine like that, my property would look like the Bonneville salt flats! even if i live on a side of a mountain!
Keep up the good work! I really appreciate your videos!
Thanks for checking out my new video 🙂 haha definitely fun pushing dirt with this old Dozer!
I have the 1010 gas ,i bought it well used 15 or more years ago and restored 2 others and sold them . pretty good machines and a couple of different variatons ,wide track ,narrow track .full 6 way blades all hydraulic and the manual 6 way blade .Yea pretty good machine. You might want to check yours cause in the video you have alot of movement on the backside where your cylinders attach to and im pretty sure there suppose to be solid.Might save you some bigger problems later on.
Great video Mike. All my favorite stuff! Will it run, your engineering skills and custom additions all rolled into one. This was fastest and most entertaining 26:58 minutes I have spent on you tube for a while. Thanks for the great video. Can't wait for additional parts on this one.
Thanks for checking out my new video Robert! 👍
Cool machine Mike.
Back in the early 70's I worked for a summer for a guy that had an old 1929 D2 Cat dozer. This thing was something else. It used what they called a "pony motor" (a little 1 lung gas engine) as the starter to crank and start the main engine. Rope pull on the pony motor. I remember wrapping that 8 ft rope around that pulley and pulling as hard as a 15 yr old could yank to try and get that worn out gas engine to start. Spray some ether into the air filter and she'd cough and sputter to life most of the time. Pull on a lever to engage the transmission to crank the Cat diesel over all the while spraying its air intake with ether as well.
Several years later I took an old Ford 12 volt car starter and designed and built a sliding mount for the starter, added a sheave to the starter motor shaft, made a handle (with push button on the end of the handle) and attached to the Cat with a small V belt to fit into the rope pulley on the pony motor. I added a 12 volt battery with starter solenoid and when you wanted to start the pony motor pull the handle to tighten the belt, push the button and the starter spun that motor over way faster than pulling on a rope. Last I saw that setup was still on the dozer just sitting in a field. It hasn't run in since probably the late 80's.
Man I wish I had that dirt! Nice work as always, appreciate the videos.
Thanks for checking out my new video Jason! 👍
It is amazing what maintenance will do. Also using it helps. Good job buddy.
Mike, thank you for sharing your content with us mere mortals…amazing work!
Thanks for checking out my videos man! I have a really good time making these videos and sharing them with my subscribers 🙂👍
Great Mike! You can build some nice trails with that machine!
Thanks for checking out my new video!
Definitely a useful machine to have around. 👍🙂
If you have the seat removable you could put it inside the shed over winter, nice little dozer, looks fun, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Absolutely outstanding. Thank you. Regards Gareth Wiltshire UK. Gratitude. Quality. Respect.
Right on thanks for checking out my new video Gary! 🙂
Love the dozer I got a 1962 1010c with the diesel and we’ve run it for around 5 years now and no real bad issues, but now got a steering clutch getting a little soft
Nice a 1010! They are good old machines 👍
Thanks for checking out my new video!
good job Mike. It very satisfying doing your own dirt work
Nice addition.
Nice Doser Mike!
Thanks man 🙂👍
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool. Looks like a solid old rig. Hopefully she will get the work done.
That thing had more water in it than a steam engine! 😂
Haha definitely! 😂
Absolutely Wonderful Video Brother.
I truly appreciate you sharing this with us.
Thanks for sharing 👍😀
I think the water being in the Pan kept the oil up high enough so the oil was stuck around the pistons and their sleeves in everything and that's why it's rolling so nice for you at 1st finally nature did something good to a diesel
man i can't wait to start acquiring some heavy machinery when i move out of the suburbs. that thing is so bad ass. get some POR15 on all the rusty bits, stuff works awesome. i did my entire drift car interior with it. if you're gonna use the top coat, which you should, thin it with xylene until it's like a milk consistency, self levels so well then, comes out looking amazing.
Ahh man love the 2002 in the background!
Love your videos man keep up the good work
There is a big market for these JD dozers.
Little bit different video but I like it!! How in the world was that engine not seized up with all that water in it??!!!
Haha 😂 crazy it still cranked over!
Definitely a good old machine 👍
Thanks for checking out my new video man 🙂
Cool old dozzer it will get better the more u run it 💯
That was fun. I'd love to give one of those a try some time, but my property is already flat... Oh well. Good luck with your projects.
Beautiful story.
Thanks Paul 🙂👍
Just catching up on your vids, man I thought I had a load of projects in the pipeline but you’re another level! Good though it’s giving me motivation to pull my finger out in 2023. Love mixed interest channels like this so many cool machines. Keep up the great work
Thanks for checking out my videos! I really appreciate it 😊
Happy new year!
That 2010 will work circles around a Case 310. Had 2 310s. Good light machines but not enough weight (even with every optional weight) and once you get enough weight on it (aftermarket sweeps, etc) you realize you don't have enough power. Ended up with a Deere 350. JDs win the vintage crawler wars for real work except to the King, Caterpillar 4 and 6 Ds.
Crazy how little maintenance amd parts these old things need to run
Hope to see more videos.
Nice machine, I would hurt myself bigtime if I had one. LOL
Thanks for checking out my new video Tom 🙂👍
Awesome video! That would sure be handy on any property. I bet the more you use it the more projects you'll find you want to do. Maybe even put in a small pond somewhere.
Thanks for checking out my new video 🙂 Definitely a useful little machines! 👍
Such a cool little machine, Man of many talents. Love the video Mike
Thank you 👍
This video gave me vibes the same as my favourite new Zealand content creator @MartyT
Thanks for checking out my video Jason 😊👍
Man, that is some good looking dirt. I wish we had some of that, down here in Georgia. We have mostly red clay.
You're gonna love it!
freakin beast!!! cool new rig!! thanks!!!
Superb video in every way most enjoyable many thanks and educational as well
You do great work sir!
Thank you Frank! 🙂
Did I click on the Diesel Creek channel by mistake!!?? 😁 Great episode, thanks Mike. 👍
I bet you'd be a cool as hell feller to hang around!
Thanks James 🙂👍
Radical Michael!!!!! You and Andy are radical!!! Just sat down to watch ❤️ :)
Thanks Dave! I really appreciate the awesome music man 🙂👍
The good thing is all that water floated the oil up into the cylinders to keep from seizing up ? Lol 😂
