Caterpillar D7 making logging roads before winter sets in, this is the same old dozer as in my first movie. Great machine! This is on our farm in Hegra - Norway. This landscape will later be cultivated for agricultural use.

Motor sounds REALLY good! I remember in the 80's I had bought a 5 acre plot. The development had something like 30 of these 5 acre lots for sale. My neighbor bought a 1950's D-7 to clear his property and ended up clearing all the neighbors as they bought their plots around him. He ended making that ole D-7 pay for itself many times over.

I logged in Washington for a decade. Ran everything from loaders to rubbertires to dozers. Mainly small jd650. But ran D7e and an old 17a. And was amazed with their power and agility and ability to chug up a hill pulling huge heavy pine trees up steep ground. Those older dozers like the 17a, you had to be men to run those skidding logs and building roads in the mountains all your life. With all the levers and clutch and winch out and winch in, separate forward and reverse and clutch in and out and the steering with separate foot brakes. And on steep ground. It was an experience I will never forget. And wish I was still doing it. The thrills and the dangers you would be in on a daily basis sometimes was crazy. Makes normal jobs so boring and unfullfilling.

I started on a old gas JD 1010....back in 1963. Got my ass chewed out for the 1st few months for pour blade control. The small machines were really the hardest as the terrain changes were quick...so were your blade response. If not, the work was Mickey Mouse. Once you mastered the small machine blade control...those D-9s or TD-25s were a cake walk in make picture perfect blade work!

@@evjone hmmmm I also have my own service shop along Caterpillar, Cummins and Perkins original and aftermarket parts inventory. Indeed CAT heavy engines rebuild is my passion I have vast experience in CAT 3200 - 3500 series diesel engines, C15, C18 and in Classic engines D346 PC. Well PC stands for Pre-combustion chamber. Caterpillar design that specific successful old fuel injection system PC in cylinder head along glow plugs that used for heat in combustion chamber. Also these engines have sleeve metering fuel injection pump and later on CAT 3306 and other engines were manufactured on new fuel injection system called DI (Direct Injection) having more power less fuel consumption and convenience in maintenance repair. Usually Caterpillar marks fuel system design PC or DI along engine model on serial number metallic plate located on cylinder block and valve cover too respectively like 3306 PC or 3306B DI. Indeed I lived in Lahore city of Pakistan having mechanical engineering bachelor degree and inspired of my beloved father who is affiliated with Caterpillar service line since 1962. Thanks a lot for reading.

Just get some weld-on grouser bar replacement steel. Add another inch or so to what you have left (looks like about 30% from here) and you won't have to worry about climbing those slippery hills anymore. I'd say that if that ripper hasn't ganked your finals yet then pushing some dirt around won't hurt them either. It'll take a while to do it but there's nothing worse than having horsepower that you can't put on the ground. Thanks for posting this vid.
