CAT D9H vs CAT D2 - Kitty play time

[@LordMuck]

For those who struggle with the concept of KZbin - this was just us running some equipment for fun to make a KZbin vid for entertainment - we weren't being paid by the yard and it wasn't a job site 🤦🏻‍♂️ If it was, kit would have been moved and we would have pushed the heap high and tight.

[@daveshepherd5352]

Some folk just want to add their opinion where it's just not needed Muck. Looked like you lot had a great time.

[@LordMuck]

Filming entertaining content and filming working kit is very different. Working situations are fairly dull and so to make it entertaining it takes another skill-set and a lot of daily operators struggle with it.

[@thesquirefromtheshire5864]

@@LordMuck I struggled to get much content from stripping 15 acres best was the survey pegs disappearing in the muck and the kites

[@lordcaptainvonthrust3rd]

LM, your attitude to PooTube is hilarious. Keep it up. Nice to see you and Matt@DieselCreek again. Superb video mucka

[@gazof-the-north1980]

The D353 engine in the D9H has a beautiful purr to it. The little D2 is a pocket battleship!

[@danielsmith-wr3mk]

I’ve had the privilege to operate a d8 dozer with scrapper box and that’s the most fun I’ve ever had with clothes on tbh. But Mate what a weapon that d9 is . Yourself and diesel creek well matched mate. Another great video. 👍

[@stuartrance277]

That’s a fantastic treat , to have you back with Matt, cranking up that heavy iron .Something about Americans, they seem to have such passion & enthusiasm, great guy to make machinery footage with, be great the next time to get Sam involved too, really like his channel as well. Thanks for the over the pond video 😊👍👍👍

[@gmartin8240]

Great putting the Dozzers to work . What a fine collection Mucker, you had good fun 🚜👍🔧

[@SomeGuysSawShop]

Also, those D9s are insane but having been extremely lucky to get to see and run one of the few D10s in my whole state and they really are like driving a house

[@stevelowndes5803]

I've been watching Diesel Creek for some years now, to see you two pair up is like when your parents meet your teachers at parents evening. Great stuff.

[@douglasmayherjr.5733]

Looks like a great time. It’s nice that they have a large toy adult playground. Matt and Sam have some nice dozers in their collection, it’s also pretty cool that they allow others to enjoy running them for a little while. Thanks for the Video, Muck.

I enjoy your content, and hanging out with Matt is always a great watch.

[@neilhansen5663]

Great video as usual love the Cats lovely little D2

[@nicolassales8679]

Nice to see that Matt didn’t rev the bollocks off that dozer when he started it from cold!

[@LordMuck]

We let it sit and warm up for about 30 minutes

[@neilmartin5345]

This video reminds me of the school summer holidays in the 80's my dad worked in a limestone quarry driving a D8, I used to go to work with him riding in the D8.

[@beboboymann3823]

Awesome work! Matt is a great guy.

[@kerryminigringo]

The D2 looks like a toy beside the D9,always good when Mucker and Matt get together.

[@johndeere1951a]

My cousin still operates the D2 that his father bought new back in 1951 for the dairy farm in up state New York. It's moved a lot of poo, made a pond and graded a lot of acres of fields. What a great comparison ✌️👍🇺🇲

[@SkidderKev]

Great size comparison having the D2 pushing beside the 9. Nice seeing those old machines work

[@rw3dog]

Looks like you had a lot of fun on my side of the pond ! Awesome video as usual ! Go CAT !

[@SomeGuysSawShop]

That’s awesome, you got me excited to run my buddy’s D7 from the 40s still cable operated. You and Diesel Creek are 2 of my favorite KZbinrs and it’s awesome watching that machine run

[@michaelguerin56]

Thank you. Great footage with the D9 and D2 working together.

[@craigross8777]

Lovely video, makes you appreciate how good the engineers/designers of the day were. Things were certainly built to last.

[@paulcooper9135]

Love the D2 vs D9 .. that was petty cool to see them running beside each other! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

[@rihovaher]

Hello ! It was 1976, I was an 18-year-old young man then, Estonia was then occupied by the Soviet Union and I was sent to Russia to serve time in the railway forces. Nearby there was a military unit where operators were taught US and Japanese technology, after that they were sent to build the Baikal-Amur railway, it was at that time important construction accompanied by flags and slogans. I saw this USA CAT D 9 bulldozer working with my own eyes and it was a very powerful visual image. I had never seen such a powerful bulldozer before and this machine started with an electric starter! It was fantastic for a young man. Russian bulldozers had a starter motor that ran on gasoline, after half a year in Russia, the starter motor also had starters, of course if there was a battery, batteries were also a rare commodity.

[@johnd7288]

That's what a call a dozer ! Poor Greta she don't like smoke pity ! Great video again good work !

[@jiggsborah7041]

I love the smell of diesel in the morning ❤

What a machine..... the spund of that engine note as it takes on more load is lush 👌💪

[@robmorgan5876]

Thanks for a very entertaining video. I also follow diesel creek who does some amazing things. No doubt you exchange a lot of ideas and have fun doing them.

[@harrisharvester]

Excellent vid love seeing that old kit in action, keep up the good work 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@daveadams4128]

Loved that, reminds me of when I was a kid when the fields behind the house became an opencast mine - loved the smell of the soil & seeing the machines working ATB Dave

That eagle gets me every time, I wonder what the British equivalent is mybe a lion drinking a brew

[@LordMuck]

Probably Toad of Toad Hall in his car Toot ! Toot !

[@davida.p.9911]

It's no small wonder when you think of raw power and "earthmover" that a CAT D9 would come to mind. Awesome machines! Of course the new ones have computers and touch screens and places to put your cell phone, but the classics still very much have that thrill factor. Thanks for keeping them alive and thanks for sharing, Lord Muck (and Matt) 😎

[@brimptonestateservices3317]

Good video. Wonderful to see the D2 and D9 working side by side. Nice to see you know one another.

[@charliemorrison1994]

Top quality content as always lovely bits of kit built to last and sound great 👍🏻

Next time you're over here, take a trip to see Big Brutus in West Mineral, Kansas. That's a piece of earth moving equipment!

[@PegAMurphy]

great video... it was great seeing you up in pa muck.....love watching Matt working his magic on the big machines he gets 💖

[@benhoward4294]

Love the sound of the turbo when it’s pushing. What a way to spend a day. Enjoy your trip and why not invite Matt over to Blighty one day.

Great video mucker brilliant to see you guys mucking about omg that DH9 was awesome and absolutely huge love watching the diesel creek video too massive thumbs-up ❤ looking forward to watching more videos ❤

[@werkspartsllc7856]

That D9H is the best of that series. U-blade and Giant single shank ripper. These were the best balanced tractors I have ever operated. Simply a feel to them when doing grade and slope work that no other tractor equaled. I have thousands of hours on these. Got one of the first D9L models to run when they came out. These are the "high drive" style. Much larger than an H so got more work done. But absolutely horrible for climbing, pushing to loader, doing grade work! My last day in the mines was on a D11N.

[@LordMuck]

Hopefully later in the year we'll have a bit more room on some better ground to load the blade on that D9H. It was great fun making the video but the soft bank and restricted area didn't allow us to make her work.

[@grahamhowland566]

Always a good thing when a bit of kit that has likely worked hard all its life gets to steal the dreams of those that will likely never know what a hard days graft is 😆👍🏼

[@casto-]

I’ve a lot of time for Matt. Been watching a lot of his stuff over Xmas (especially the Autocar) nice to see the D9 out pushing 👌👍

[@matthewhodder3029]

You, Matt and Mike make crawler operation look easy, but I know that it isn't. Great video thank you

[@kevcawthorne8170]

That D9 is one beast of a machine

[@stevenclaeys6252]

Some nice kit there ! Thank you for another great video. Stay safe out there. Cheers

[@V8PropaneBurner]

Matt "the D9 is like driving a house around". Amusing to hear that after watching the Jackson Brothers load their D11 to go to its new home. That thing must be like driving a mountain 😂

[@chrislovejoy8249]

Great video Mucker you look a bit cold mighty big dozer I watch Diesel Creek with Matt as well.😊🚜👍

[@mikeduin8311]

That is one mahusive piece of kit!👌 Loads of fun machines in the background aswell, nice one as usual M'lod 👌 Cheers, Mike

[@richardphelan8414]

Ah Mucker I see your in PA at Matts place ,Back in the USA it's good to see you on this side of the Pond again Mucker , Matt has such a eclectic collection of old American Iron you could spend quite some time there playing with the stuff ,Those D9s are big old girls with lot's of power ,you look like you were having some proper fun pushing dirt .I hope you got to go to the Auctions in Florida while your were here on Holiday Mucker they are awesome .

[@lordcaptainvonthrust3rd]

10 out 10 to you and Matt for the entertainment

[@daveshepherd5352]

Having spent countless hours on a D9G before going on to a 988 shovel, it's obvious you know what you're doing on a dozer Mucker, nice job and great video 👍

Be a good idea to shovel your tracks when they're covered in mud in the winter.

I'll pass on your suggestion to Matt and he can send Mike to find someone to do it 👌🏼

@@LordMuck They added the lower section 10 years or so ago. They are going to have to add on just for Matt's equipment.

Who needs a straight pipe, just listening to that D9 idling was sweet! And her whistling while pushing that dirt.👍 How lucky are you to go play with the dirt like that - bring on the D9 footage!!

I'm getting spoiled. Diesel Creek yesterday & Lord Muck today. Also never hurts to leave a comment, it helps with the algorithm. Nice to see you back to America. Good video. Give Dog a cheek scratch for me. At least she isn't stunned like Willard.

[@michaelcooke1672]

Great video to watch as always.

[@jefftheaussie2225]

They used two brand new D9s, a funny looking excavator and a couple of, what would be now, little dump trucks to build the Ord River dam in Western Australia in the late sixties. It holds back 10,000 gigalitres and backs the water into the Northern Territory. Who said D9s weren’t an awesome thing. Jeff

John Moore had a row of d2. There was also a cable operated D9 there for a bit and it was genuinely huge! Also a broyt face shovel, and a four banger D5 that had put a rod through the cam shaft :o)
