Caterpillar Twenty Two #2F6468 Walkaround

Caterpillar Twenty Two #2F6468 at Hastings, MN.

[@TJAkin]

Nice little tractor. Straight tin work and complete with many of the goodies that get lost over time. Tempting to check inside the barn for the engine side panels; might get lucky.

My late father’s 22 had the 14 inch “orchard” tracks, so it seemed better proportioned than the ones with the narrow tracks. Great little tractor. Easy to identify by the absence of an upper track idler.

I love seeing these old machines! A lot of our country was built with hard work and simple machines like these!

[@unclesuperstar]

That "PTO" unit is a modified Model A Ford transmission. I just went through one yesterday. Interesting.

Old tractors are so much fun!

[@rverro8478]

I like old stuff like that. Thumbs-up for whoever keeps them alive. Edit....Where are my manners ? Thanks for sharing

[@paulhammond7489]

I could watch your Old-Iron walk-around videos all day long.... Keep em comin' :)

[@evankibbe590]

I love your walk arounds. 😊

[@TheChance170]

My dad has a 39' R2. My grandfather had a 22 but was in pieces, we so regret not taking it when he passed, would of been a fun little project.

[@iainrobertson7004]

A very interesting, story of the Cat 22. The running on cheap Kerosene not really highlighted before.

[@bobpaterson1845]

Another interesting walk round ty , over here in Scotland most of the Cats that were spark ignition started on normal petrol and then run on paraffin which I think is the same as kerosene 🤔👍👍

[@ImpHalla66]

Always enjoy the walk-a-rounds!!

[@ThisOldFarm]

These walk around videos sure have been neat and interesting to watch! I hope you will be coming to the Nowthen Threshing Show this weekend to do maybe some more walk arounds!

[@robthistle9585]

Just recently subscribed to your channel. Have really enjoyed watching all your videos.. Very informative! Keep them coming!

[@lukestrasser]

The 22 looks like the bigger brother to your Ten that you have back at the house. Quite a bit if similarity between the two in the way the track frames are built. Thanks for sharing Squatch!

[@danielbowman4819]

Neat old crawler!

[@waynep343]

i take it the drive sprocket are cast iron.. not cast steel making welding up the wear and reshaping them much harder. but perhaps new are still available or even freshly cast from home made patterns.

[@KennyKizzleRustyNutzRanch]

Nice run down on the 22! Good, original looking Cat. I have to make it down to Hastings at some point.

[@unclebarry78]

I just saw an old Cat 22 on display in front of a local construction company yard.

[@regsparkes6507]

Those tractors were built to last a long while, weren't they? I'd love to hear this one running from start up to operation...but no matter, I appreciate the walk around just as much. Thanks again!

[@robertinscoe2379]

Nice collection of old iron at that show. Would be cool to hear some running. Nice nontheless.

[@notajp]

Would love to have a vid on that Allis-Chalmers machine in the background....

[@robertkavich7426]

Looks like a LeTourneau WWII airdrop scraper in the background , very rare machine . Pusher blade on the front , all run by a cable control unit . NOT OSHA approved for the operator !!! LOL , tough to control going down hill with the steering brakes , no ROPS back in the day

[@garyfeltus9801]

That was a cool old cat.

Hi Squatch, I am in the process of getting a Caterpillar 22 back to good working order. It has been in my family for 3 generations and I would like to give it some TLC. I had some questions for you. I tried to find an email address to personally email you but I have had no luck. If you could send me an email I would really appreciate it if I could pick your brain a little bit. By the way I really enjoy all of your videos. I love the old school technology. Thanks

[@scottmoore8080]

I would love to have a tractor...have to wait for next life😊 S

Whoops, hit the wrong button, dry barley field. Boss said “now that’s one I’ll have to write into the book of impossible “.

[@seniorelectrician6831]

very interesting

That is a old Ford model a transmission that is used for the pto

[@lewiemcneely9143]

Nice 22 but I can tell you're waiting on a slide bar.

[@ajones8699]

Nice

[@michaelmcclure8673]

Just seen one at a junkers place. Someone was using it to pull logs.

[@arnemagnus680]

I would love to plow a field with it

[@jimkaipanen6577]

I noted your previous CAT walk around never said anything about the track pins and rolls.Any reason why? Thank you.

[@MCEngineeringInc]

Neat video!👍🏻

[@Pete-from-Tn]

Know where one like that is for sale now. There asking $1200. Rebuild Mag, but story is. Sat in building for years. Engine is stuck now, and some parts gone. But looks to be around 80% of it there.

[@gordoncorey8023]

Did they make an rd2 caterpillar

What’s up with 5j1113, why I subscribed

I enjoy all these vids on old tractors, etc - BUT - I too subscribed for 5J1113...

PTO looks like an old Ford transmission to me

[@gregorycalzada5264]

DIG IT 😈

[@CarlHargreavesRustyRelicsUK]

does anyone know where I could get a Radiator cap and the mushroom air pre cleaner just like the items fitted to the tractor in the video, for my Cat 22. I'm over in England btw.

[@wendybradford3733]

did you just say R2 D2 in the same sentence? I enjoy your vids

[@wendybradford3733]

@@squatch253 The crawler force is strong with this one

[@Wjones450]

based by the wear on the pedals i would say it has a (half) ton of wear!

[@jamesdiehl8690]

With all these walkarounds and your Cat knowledge, I have a good question for you. When i was younger, in the 60s the house next to me was being built. The excavator crew had a very small cat dozer on the site. It looked like regular Cats, but it was maybe 6 ft long × 31/2 ft wide. It was yellow, had regular tracks and a push blade. I believe it was a gas model. I use to love when it moved because the tracks made a sound like sleigh bells tinkling. Have you ever seen one, or know what model it could have been?

[@tacticalrabbit308]

I have an interesting tractor for you I posted a video of it here on youtube
