Caterpillar D6 Dozer Recovery

[@NoNameRacecars]

Crazy how the old equipment just comes right back to life. Well done!

[@patriot4258]

Wish my grandad was still with us to do cool stuff like this

[@mikeengstrom8260]

Nice job Jeff and dad! Got that 3 lunger runnin and home where it belongs. The old girl found a good home/new beginning

[@jacobbuckley8232]

Man theres a bunch of good stuff in that garage!

[@morgansword]

Knowing the steer clutches work made for a better day as most were bad one side or the other and then parked up to seize up. Most all were cable blade and made good operators out of men never on one before. So happy that mice hadn't peed the valves up tight

I have an RD6 with a home built direct electric start. They removed the pony at the pony clutch and mounted an electric starter. You engage the starter drive with the original lever and then push the button to run the starter. Works good.

Cracking video. Best from England

[@bennyogden4524]

Looks pretty damn good with the time you get done reading all the ingredients and how to prepare at your past hungry or dead this kind of stuff I love to watch man these yes Old Iron Equipment starting up after years of sitting keep up the good work man

[@JoE_Songs]

man what a beauty. in our plastic, planned obsolescence world, those machines become more beautiful by the day. wouldn't have been bad to see the bleeding process though ... all makes great content.

You are lucky to still have your grandfather. Lost mine in 2002

[@jeffg2256]

I really enjoyed this video.

[@erik_dk842]

I love the sound of the longstroke D6 and D7's

[@denishennessy1318]

Just found this channel, great stuff 😆

[@garyarmstrong4597]

Beautiful sound!

[@DOCTORDROTT]

very nice dozer 1930's D6 2H

[@davidkimmel4216]

Beautiful machine

[@generalistgarage]

Love the old iron, thanks for the video

[@bjduhon1528]

Sure would like to see you working on this

[@nathank7239]

You don't need to bleed the injectors by turning it over. Leave the throttle lever in the off position wich makes the injection pump have no pressure. Than crack all your injection lines and walk away for 3 hours and it will bleed itself.

[@alanburns8155]

How about that old sideboom on top of the hill? With the boom up.

[@gradyyokeley9930]

Did the man you bought the 6 from have a old side boom siting in the yard also.

[@fsj197811]

Awesome, good for you!

[@jamessmith7691]

That's a beauty. No hydraulic leaks. lol

[@baraktzfanya3980]

Squach has a couple of them at home, and probably some spare parts too.

[@colin8532]

Very nice!

[@RomeKG471]

What was the pipelayer [sideboom]? Cat, IH ?

[@hawaiiansunrise8984]

Doesn't look like you brought it too far. How far is it from your grandads to you dads place?

[@davidsellars4327]

My book isn't available, is that a D-6 or a Diesel 40? Did you throw any ATF in with the diesel?

[@brunocontessotto9340]

Je conduisais le même avec un compactes atèle en 1972

[@islawilliams9572]

[@bobbydillon9618]

I knew when your grandpa was driving that the mirror was not original!

[@georgesgilli]

[@erik_dk842]

Squatch253 needs a blade like this on his D6

[@mariebennett5739]

[@jimjim753]

👍

[@robertordewald8678]

If you think of the world of Mad Max or any of these post-apocalyptic worlds in the movies the machines you'll see running won't be the most modern newest John Deere's are cats or new Holland's of today e-you but it'll be an old at this time seventy-five-year-old Cat that will be resurrected because it only took a hammer screwdriver and a pair of pliers to get it going that's how planned obsolescence should be!

[@byronstevens3790]

[@stew6338]
