Great video!! Gotta love those old dozers. Nice to see people restoring them and still using them. They don’t make them like they used to for sure. Keep up the good work.
I have several old machines. I can’t say I restore them. I’m leaving that to others. I like to recover and make them good to operate. I do use the machines on my property.
@ That’s awesome!! They deserve to be kept running for sure. Your video really hit home as we are doing an undercarriage on a D8K right now. We use it on our farm. I could feel your struggles as I watched the video. Thanks for sharing and look forward to the next video.
Well I just stopped by to see how you were doing. looks like you got her going your way! nice job! nothing fancy, just hand tools will power and a little help from the good Lord!
The actual track frame it self looked in reasonable shape has it been straightened and strengthened in the past? The idler fork and block looked ok as well I've seen a lot worse

good job bro,it cant be easy but on the bright side it will keep you outa trouble,as always,thanks for sharing
It for sure keeps me out of trouble! 😂
I've fixed a lot of them in my life
The track frames on this cat have been fixed a few times. Mostly with a cutting torch and welder. I’m sure you’ve seen that a few times
Good to see some older iron upkeep. You do whst you do for the hell of it as you said lol i think you might like doing the work too!!
I totally love working on rusty worn out retired machines.

No it has not been straightened. The idler and all other parts will outlast the work I’ll put to it.
If you can get some AR stock
You got me there. Not sure what AR stock is.
