Legendary Cat D9G working!

[@aztomt406]

Glad to say our company back in the day owned a D9G with a 16-foot U dozer, with a single shank ripper. We called it old "snaggle tooth."

[@Houndini]

Old timers swear by them Flat Tracks. They do push & pull good.

[@aztomt406]

@@Houndini You got that right! 👍

[@michaellina4440]

I remember watching, 1969, a d9 push block cable set up pushing 621 scrapers. When the scraper would get snagged on a bolder the d9 operator just lifted way up the back of the scraper n they just kept going. Then the even better part. The d9 came back dropped that push block blade a down it went to root out that big potato.... sometimes it took several tries and the sound of that diesel was just better than music (still is).

[@allaboutmachine]

Good Times! Can't beat the sound they make!

[@leepiper4621]

Definitely a beast

[@stephendreier167]

No GPS just real operator's

[@regconrad7783]

Just what I was going to reply 😂😂😂😂

[@danemoore2302]

This is probably a dumb question but can you put gps on a dozer

[@stephendreier167]

yes@@danemoore2302

[@stephendreier167]

Just like farming, there are some that can plant row so straight one would think they used GPS. The generation using a transit and a shot sight telling the operator another inch, well that's what I call an operator. @@regconrad7783

[@maxjones9139]

@@danemoore2302oh yeah! It does the adjusting for the operator. Next time you’re around modern machines check out above the hydraulic cylinders that lift the blade there’s gps devices. You can see them on road graters too and I’m sure many other machines.

[@abdulkarimtakkoush768]

Awesome D9G

[@Vernon-Chitlen]

Sweet, add 4 barrel ripper, couple shanks and full U blade, excellent machine. I went from G&H to an 8t, didn't know how to start it! 😂😂😂

[@markdoering6877]

Worked with a couple of 9’s in the early 80’s . One had a pushen cushion blade for the 6 fleet of 631 open bowls. Worked 2 years moving dirt 1/2 mile for overpass approach’s . Both 9’s had ponies. Start time was 4:30am in the winter for the 7am start for the operators. Loved that bridge job.

[@brucelancaster7405]

Great old machine 👍

[@rickiejohnston4206]

Great machines

[@rparker6837]

Looks pretty tight 😎

[@angelo_giachetti]

As kid I loved watching bulldozers dig basements. I was intrigued by the hydraulic cylinders.

[@randyrexford8113]

Love that old iron

[@dozer1642]

The D9G is the OG.

[@jeffekkel5870]

That's not working, that's just playing!😂

[@teddrummond552]

I've put a lot of hours in the seat of an old D9 just like it they were great Dozers

[@dozerboy67]

I started out on an old surplus cable rigged D6 we used to clear land and take out tree stumps with on our ranch. It had a pony motor instead of a starter motor, it was a bitch to start! 💪👊🇺🇸

[@stephenwilliamson1522]

I did also send surplus D6 with cable pole for you, blade and a pony motor. No hydraulics.

[@The_CIA]

*Saw one like this (no ROPS) flip over. It wasn't pretty. Guy was folded in half and his head was as flat as a dinner plate.*

[@IanJPrice-zh9gt]

Ouch!!!! When???

[@rexross7086]

Let me know when it is working

[@brianlanderman3462]

That's what I was thinking

[@kamusungu]

I remember as a young kid that my grandfather had one, wish the business didn't have the problems so that it would have been around today.

[@stuartjohnstone4071]

Sure looks different without ROPS

[@danielboone2300]

Deve ser bom demais trabalhar com uma máquina dessas hein...

[@adamboychuk8221]

That is a thing of beauty from a time when operators had to actually operate machinery

Man , I love this . I ran one for 12 years at a landfill back home in Puerto Rico . Went I enjoyed going into work .

Gigantesco esteira perfeito e top de força,

This is a good operator this is back when they didn't have GPS and they could operate the Dozer👍🇺🇲🏆🔥

[@A_Cowboy_called_JackRabbit]

"Working" that beautiful machine!

[@wmden1]

I can't help but prefer the traditional track set up over the high drive. I'm sure there are advantages to the newer setup, but the old just looks right, to me anyway.

[@Bertrum123]

Tracks last longer on high drive

[@yimemontesarboleda3213]

Para mí no hay nada más poderoso como la Cat Cartepillar o la Kotmasu. Son las mejores. Bulldosser. Cilindros, Rector escavadoras perforadoras y los inigualables motores Dc9 para los Barcos de Cabotaje.

[@joewoodchuck3824]

Awesome sight and sound.

nice CAT soil & rocks mover & land leveler # ❤️🇵🇰

[@ccrx6700]

Really cool 😊👍😎

[@thegreenerthemeaner]

LOTS of soil in this country rearranged by 9s. Sure there's bigger, newer and fancier. But I know 9s built or at least had a hand in about every Highway project since 1955.

[@phoenixlove76]

Ol boy Makin whoop de doos

[@williamhumphrey9766]

next time how's about you put an actual operator on the damn thing. Being able to walk the thing is not working it.

[@tickedoffsheikh8587]

don't why I have an immense obsession for the non-elevated track models of CAT bulldozers such as this D9G. I'm never impressed with the elevated models!

When just one cylinder equates to a normal straight 6 cubic inch (245.112 cubic inch) That’s 4liters per 1cylinder 😮
