International TD25

[@markcrew3696]

As a kid I watched my uncle push many a mountain with these td-25s he swore by them. They were easy to maneuver because the steering levers were right between your legs it had planetary steering and the machine was a workhorse seldom ever broke down. My uncle's gone now but his memory and the machines he drove and that old td-25 will never be forgotten thanks for the memory.

[@jamesgage1831]

My dad ran a 2d 24 he swore by international was one of the best he liked cat's to but preferred international said everything was easy to run and work on thanks for sharing this video with us love it 👍

[@4x4RescueThunderBay]

This is my favorite video on the internet. Found it shortly after I was introduced to You Tube.

[@thespook9808]

Those old International's were really great dozers. They pushed HARD, were really easy to handle, rarely broke down, and had a really deep, throaty growl.

[@flyncub100]

Love operating dozers from D-9 to TD-7 Operated about 15 years from digging cellars to roads ponds Loved it

[@dustys1banjo]

The ole tractor is pretty good, but that man operating it is a master.

[@Bushguyrocks]

I watch a lot of these videos from my armchair so that pretty much makes me an expert on these matters. I could carry on endlessly about the torque converter, turbo, blade, soil, and so forth. Bottom line? Cool video. Thank you.

[@rossgray3070]

I know what u mean , have spent the last 52yrs operating machines and still doing it full time for a living and loving it.

[@Randyman4126]

You like the older International dozers?? We use them on every job..I have some videos if you are curious..😁🫡

[@scotabot7826]

Legend has it that old guy is still down in the holler pushing to this very day.

[@paulr5067]

These old mechanical dozers + diesels smoke any of the new electronic garbage out there. TD25 + TD 30, D8H, D8K, D9G, D9h, D355 + D455 are beasts of a lost time.... a time I still live in mentally

[@B422TMack]

Ole TD25 Sounds good. glad to see an ole IH Not marked as a Dresser & Still working every day . they dont build em like this any more. remember a friend of the family had a TD25 W/ a IH V8 In it. talk bout a beautiful sound .

[@rossgray3070]

Would have been a TD 20C or E as they were the only ones that IH made that had a V 8 engine in them.

[@B422TMack]

Yes sir. He had a TD20C with the IH V8. That's the dozer with the V8 I was thinking of. Thanks for Jogging my Memory. 😎. He also had a TD25C with the DT817 In it. Both were stout machines . Especially on the clearing jobs my family done back in the day.

[@nonickname9930]

This machine will last on and on with an operator like this feller. Keeps her laboring without any abuse.

[@sanora80261]

As a UASF RED HORSE Equipment Operator There were several TD25’s used for training @ Ft. Leonard Wood Missouri AKA Ft. Lost in the Woods, Misery! Even got personal story’s about that Berm out along the dozer field 🤪.

[@franksweets1859]

Schönes Video, schöner Maschinensound, danke!

[@openstationloggingkevinbak4625]

good old dozer love to see the smoke come out of the stack. had been involved with clearing job along time ago Mackenzie construction had a few of these dozed td20s td18s anyways operator would push up against some big pine stumps the black smoke roll out then out they would come pretty impressive

[@walklej]

The TD 25 is still in production by Dressta in Poland who bought the design from Komatsu

[@joshjones3408]

Its been a minute since I seen one pill the dirt up like that she's ham bone good Video 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@clinthowe7629]

my pop had a 20c, very powerful machine, they all had a similar International sound, i think it was the turbo charger. the 20 was D7 size, the 25 must be D8 size.

[@Randyman4126]

You like the older td20's..We use them on every job still..Take a peek in you like..😁🫡

[@timothylines3867]

this work gets in your blood.

[@briansnyder8494]

Not often nowdeays that you see a blade running that clean or a operator that was born in the seat. One of the last few.

[@dynamitedingo8183]

these were the days i remember when our eyes were laser sights and i wish i was back on dozers i miss it a lot

[@Randyman4126]

We have quite a few td20's & td25's..We could find you a seat & put you to work!!😁🫡

[@miketreadwell5654]

The International's had the best steering system; better than CAT!I operated a TD25 building logging roads in the (HIGH COUNTRY) of Wa State

[@keithbrier4397]

Yes! You had the highs and lows you can steer with instead of wearing out clutches.No interuption of power at all. I really miss the one I used to run.

[@catdieselpower193]

She's a dam fine Ole girl! and rollin the soil like a boss!!

[@Buzzbox3rd]

good honest ole girl , love it, there was nothing wrong with inter gear !

[@jamesfranks545]

That isn't the first time this operator has sat at those controls lol.

[@f150bc]

the Tds had more pushing power on a turn than the cats.Overall the cats just outlasted the others .The Komats are giving them a run for the money now, the operators made all the difference on any machine on any job.

[@jamiemasterson1]

That's the first thing I noticed when the video started was the fantastic mixture on the front of the blade! I guess it is called homemade.

[@memphis28571]

I have spent many hours on a 25c and this one sounds a little tired. Sounds like the turbo isn't spooling up like it should. I love these old dozers though

[@howardlevner1381]

My kind of dirt pusher,love those old dozers...……….

[@tdshaker]

Later model with supercharger and torque converter. One of the best dozers of the day. Right up there with the D9H, only not as big. Operator does not finish his push, until the blade is empty.

[@markfroman738]

It was about equivalent to the D8

[@rg1430914]

I am not sure what the plan was there,jamie had it right,he was mixing the topsoil in with the subsoil and piling it all in one pile.Must have been part of the "master" plan.

[@sequoyah59]

Looks like he is doing it right to me. Stripping and stockpiling topsoil prior to digging the pond. Then he can use the topsoil on the outside of the dam and top for grass.

[@robertmccardle5113]

Awesome. Steer without interupting power. smooth square bolt free track frames awesome to clean out . cat shoulda took a lesson from that.

[@danielmckay3458]

Are you trying to get a pivot across the valley

[@dieselwrench3621]

Beautiful

[@YotaLizard]

This is what bulldozers looked like when I was a kid.

[@justinstearns9723]

I know these things are low rpm torque monsters, but it doesn't sound like its getting quite enough revs. Seems like it should run a touch faster than it is.

[@Toni62R]

impressive power, the very slow first gear is very usual for the heavy push...

[@nfarnell1]

is it 25b or 25c, very big difference in performance between those two machines. same engine (817) but full panetary drive to the rear spockets, not just pinion and bull gear

[@puksrasohchurrun]

neil farnell both 25b and c and 30 ran planets after the pinion crownwheel. 15s and 20es ran planetaru in the final drive aswell as steering plants after the crowneheel. Incredibly good system cat copied as close as they could get wirhout breaching i.h/dressta patent in their "diff steer" line up. Even that idea they stole from cletrac

[@puksrasohchurrun]

Oh and shes a c bud

[@puksrasohchurrun]

Excuse my spelling my old fingers are too fat and numb for this phones keypad, but im sure you get the idea

[@raoulcruz4404]

Maybe camera guy will get a tripod for Christmas.

[@nogoodhood202]

Rolling coal and Rolling dirt nice!

[@edmcelhone4501]

this guy is fine just working on his own property having fun

[@frankmchutchison9436]

She,s Gittin er done

[@billhicks7009]

we had a 25b what a monster go places a d8 couldnt track frames are farther forward than a cat harder to get stuck . canvases and reversible fan blades . heat in the winter warm water in the snow and rain. all around power house. i think it was much more trouble free than the cats and would go up a loam or peat pile that youd be digging a d8 out of.

[@60oldmen]

are you digging a pond or what?

[@danielmckay3458]

Nice bushing not pounding over rocks all day

[@motorhead6763]

Everyones an " expert" ....maybe dude dont care about topsoil...weird how heavy equipment dudes are often such critics..lol

[@regsparkes6507]

Some would say, " those who can't operate, critique ."

[@curtissmarshall3675]

motorhead where I come from topsoil is scarce. Also adds so much time and money to a job to strip. Maybe where he comes from it is abundant so who cares. Either way the guy can really get the best out if her. Like to see any if the critics keep up with this guy

[@shawnecaster]

Thank you!! A lot of ignorant and jealous comments plague these equipment videos! Its cool that people take the time to post and then all the internet ass hats have to hate on them. I Don't understand!!

[@puksrasohchurrun]

Curtiss Marshall same here, defiantly an out standing operator.

[@culturaldivide5439]

Where I come from we would sell it all for topsoil.... a wise man once told me "it all come off the top"

[@kriegrogers2649]

Needs a new breather element

[@frankthomas2412]

she doesn't grunt does she

[@NakedDave100]

It is not running right!!!

[@maplemanz]

it seems tired,probably has tons of hours on it.

[@genebonjour5545]

If you dont fix that turbo and clean the injectors your motor will be no more very soon. They should have very little smoke on a push

[@edmcelhone4501]

them old girs smoked from new

[@ΣπύροςΑυγέρης-β1λ]

Ευτυχώς που υπάρχουν τα μηχανήματα οδοποιίας και κάνουμε έργα.

[@OragroundcarePlantHireMadeley]

Wants a new transmission no spin on tracks at all tired

[@hamish2202]

Todd machine but I think the caterpillars are better

[@curtissmarshall3675]

oragroundcare & Plant Hire its a c series Ih thing. When really pushing you can almost feel the torque converter trying to jump out of the floorboards at you

[@Agnemons]

What most people don't seem to realize is that the point of maximum traction is that point just before your tracks/wheels slip (tractor tyres run about 11% slip in soil for max traction), so if his tracks are skidding he is no longer pushing at max and is wearing his track gear out faster than he should.

[@puksrasohchurrun]

Kim Wilson yeah I’ve never got that ae. “It’s got so much grunt it spins it tracks” since when has loss of traction helped anything be productive

[@alvie2]

nothing but smoke..

[@paulrobinson2604]

First gear all the time just like a old timer

[@catskinner7564]

Still rather have a 46a

[@cristopherlorenzogalvezram9104]

MUY LENTO LE FALTA CANCHA

[@edmcelhone4501]

you dont spin tracks more undercariage wear everybody knows everything most of them 3rd gear no dirt on the blade work for 20 min talk for 10
