What are the size of your rear tires. I would like to put that size on my r. Thanks

@craiglacey9827 9 ай бұрын

It’s nice to see somebody turn the diesel engine over, while decompressed, for a sufficient time to build oil pressure before compressing the diesel engine and opening the throttle. So many of these guys on KZbin don’t do that, and are causing a lot more wear and tear than is necessary! I spent my formative years running a 720 Diesel and an 820 on our Montana cattle ranch. Other than minor differences in the controls, the tractors are very similar to the R.

That’s the way I was taught to do it when starting the old Cats. I still think it’s a superior system for that reason - the ability to crank the engine with no load on the bearings. I know I cringe every time my Duramax starts, waiting those couple of seconds for the oil gauge to come up. We have a 730 Diesel so your pair is very similar to ours. They’re a little clumsy with the hand clutch and the 730 has too high of a reverse gear but overall they are well made for their intended job, and I don’t think that anything puts out more work for less fuel

I started and ran a R at a tractor show a couple of years. Unfortunately towner died and after a few years the family sold many tractors with the R being one of them.

It just tears the roots and stumps out in one pass with no sweat at all,no the 983 was a purpose built crawler loader not a dozer D8 with a loader frame like I thought for years

@dieseldave71 Жыл бұрын

You are correct, it is a purpose built machine but it does share some parts with the D8 of the same era. Final drives and undercarriage for sure, possibly the trans although it has a torque converter rather than the torque divider that the dozer uses. The D343 engine in the 983 was never used in a dozer as far as I know, in fact the only equipment application I can think of is the 988 wheel loader and I believe a scraper, maybe the 637 but that’s just a guess

I wonder how ,many John Deere R owners lost that fuel tank for the pony motor by not re-installing it properly.

@tomhoffman9729 Жыл бұрын

These machines were commonly used in the steel mills. The 977's were the primary machine used in my area. To my understanding the 983 was pretty much a D7 with a loader on it.

@dieseldave71 2 жыл бұрын

It did have a pony.... unfortunately, Cat had some issues with balancing on this series pony- I had several of them apart and some were even fire cranks, some were odd fire, which told me they were having problems. The one that was on there shook like a blender full of marbles, and the block of the main was all welded up where it had apparently vibrated itself off on various occasions. So I converted to 24v direct electric start, doesn’t have the nostalgia factor but it’s convenient.

One of the best workhorses of its day. I remember as a child working the fields with this machine day after day in the spring and fall seasons. If anything happened to the engine my dad and I would tare the engine down at the end of the day, rebuild it and we were back in the field the next morning. Thanks for the memories!
