D10's Pushing Detroit Powered 660B's Up Close

[@myronparks3495]

The guys operating the push Cats, D10s, know what they are doing.

[@alvie2]

it looks like the 660's may have been repowered with DD series 60 motors.. not the old 2strokes.

[@mrbluenun]

Really great video. Thanks so much for the upload.

[@6redline3]

Serious dirt moving,,,Nice cycling...

[@Richie864]

Thanks, Rely Enjoyed

[@caterpillarman456]

This video is about moving dirt the way it was meant to be done!! The 2 D10 operators are very good skinners, no wasted movements or wasted time. If the 660 engines are really Detroit Diesel I would be very surprised. Parts may be scarce for the original 660 engines but Cat has modern engines with same footprint.

[@bretmuldner]

60 series Detriot teir3-4-and 1/4 of the cost of Cat teir engines! Seen many all over the southwestern US

[@dennisholst4322]

Agreed

[@dennisholst4322]

They work together neighbors in community's should do that we then could have a better country

[@josh33025]

How much track chains did you go through on that job?

[@dav1099]

Those poor pusher boys don't even get time to take a piss! cool stuff

[@dennisholst4322]

They can get pissed off though

[@dennisholst4322]

They know how to hook up

[@Gavin84w]

They sure get a bit crossed up from time to time, gotta be quick on the wheel to straighten her out or those 2 D10,s will just jack knife you, good team here, circuit is well balanced with returning scrapers just coming back at the right time, windrow loading and tagging up on the move.

[@dennisholst4322]

This is good dirt you gotta be on your act in the mud

[@wz7285]

The oldest guys on our jobs were running the Triple Sixes

[@mikekirtley4822]

A very busy field indeed ,all clued up though,no time wasted. Don't know how long D10,s will last top slot backwards. Eating that muck .

[@michaelconlon3243]

what's with the detroit's In the 660s are they 4 stroke or 2 stroke? I'm deaf

[@memphis28571]

I'm curious why they would have been repowered with Detroit's? They don't sound like they are Detroit powered either. Didn't these originally have d353's for power

[@unclestinkyfinger]

Really cool vid, what year is this?

[@taylorpelletier396]

2013

[@jimchristie8992]

I'm wonderin if there's Bud Hecker nuts on them front axles?

[@dennisholst4322]

Ride along underneath it

[@Gavin84w]

It,s simple, don,t like, don,t watch.

[@joepesh237]

Another one that needs a safe space lol

[@nfarnell1]

if you look close you can see they are S60, detroits

[@Muffinrider]

Series 60 is very simple, very cheap, very reliable and very strong.

[@MatthewHoag77]

How old are the 660Bs?

[@jaedog369]

Having to run a 660 sucks. But they do move a lot of dirt.

[@tootired76]

I mostly see IH/Case or John Deere 4 track tractors pulling a towed scraper bowl. I don't see any advantage of using antique equipment such as these....

[@lordadamthird]

i find it interesting how these scrapers have 6 wheels compared to many 4 wheeled ones. wonder if it makes much difference.

[@lewiemcneely9143]

Adam's moderately good LEGO creations They ride like a Roll compared to a 4-wheel pan. Cat has floating goosenecks but a 6-wheel is still much better!

[@johnsomerset1510]

Detroit two strokes my ar5e.

[@GRADE8BOLT]

Money for nuthing ......that iron was paid for what 60 years ago ? And I thaught I ran some old A model scraper 627

[@reatonable]

The old 627 I operated would run the arse of the newer 627s she just had very long legs they couldn't come near her on a long haul rd.

[@boardingpass04]

That's some old iron

[@edsouza8233]

Puro sincronismo dos operadores.

[@alco424]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........very nice!

[@garygroves4037]

the way to move muck

[@anthonylucibello67]

Detroits are 2 stroke which means the piston fires every 2 revolutions

[@PAoutdoors99]

These are not 2 stokes though, they are most likely 60 series.

[@anthonylucibello67]

true

[@lewiemcneely9143]

PAoutdoors99 That's what I'm thinking. No 2-stroke scream. Most likely because of emissions.

[@andymac4965]

How much oil?

[@swn02]

better than your um stuff

[@mhoff5777]

Mounting the mufflers on the ROPS (rollover cage) is a foolish idea. Don't cut down on noise that much.

[@canvids1]

If I was doing this job as pushers I would find that a very boring job I have not seen this done but I would not like that job.

[@robertjackson8826]

that is not a Detroit cause the engine is a cat you can tell by the sound of the engine

[@SoCalEarthMovers]

+Robert Jackson 100% a detroit

[@wailnshred]

I certainly could be a newer Detroit, not one of the old two strokes.

[@harlansnyder8070]

They are Detroit Series 60. All were repowered due to California Emissions. The Federal Government picked up a lot of the cost. Couldn’t turn it down.

[@gilt1779]

660 are Cat and only Cat. No Detroit engines here . Again False bullshit.
