Scrapping An Old Bulldozer

Scrapping an old bulldozer and hauling it to the salvage

[@TravelNatureEU]

Gorgeous! I love the atmosphere of the rural landscape. Those machines are so awesome even at the end of their lives. I almost feel the soul flying away from this old guy - it must have been through a lot of hardship! Thanks for sharing! Greetings from Poland 🤝🤝

[@Jdigger4130]

Sure miss you and yer families videos Davis and crew! Cheers from Santa Cruz Ca

After my grandfather passed away I had a few acres of old equipment to clean up. Most we loaded ourselves. But 5 old Massey and IH combines were left. The scrap place sent a guy with a skid steer to load the combines. I laughed when I saw the little skid steer. It handled the like a Boss.

[@davissons3801]

I tell you what. We've owned two different skid steers since 07. I'd be handicapped without one at this point. Handier than a pocket on a shirt.

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

I really enjoyed the adventure you just carried me on. thank you so much for that young man.🙂👍

[@davissons3801]

Thanks for watching. Glad you could come along.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Man yeah, got it done! Hard to believe it wouldn't break loose with your dozer tugging on it and lifting it. But looks like he had he way with it and a torch 🤦🤦😂😂😁😁!! Enjoyed the ride, that ole JD loader he has is a beast!! Loved the end, parking there and y'all fellers going to get a bite to eat!! Little man there got getting in a cabinet down to a tee😉😉👍👍 Thank you Jared, look fwd to more sir!!

[@davissons3801]

Yeah that was disappointing. I figured for sure we could get it with my little dozer. The crazy thing is it just come unstuck and we didn't know why lol

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

@@davissons3801 Sounds like the luck I would have🤦🤦😂😂👍

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

You guy's are my kinda people always getting the job done as well as done right...

[@davissons3801]

Thanks alot.

[@enduringpatriot]

I always enjoy watching your videos and watching as you teach those boys. Been a while since I saw a new video. Hope all is well with y'all!

[@Ants_Pants]

That thing looks very similar to my soviet dozer that i bought.

[@BrokenWrenches]

From my recliner some of that looked like fun !!!!!

[@davissons3801]

Lol I bet it did.

[@kennkid9912]

A father started a construction business. It got pretty big. His kids kind of in the business. He went down to his gravel pit and some guys were there cutting up some old machinery. They said his son in law had sold it to them. SIL didnt own it of course. He drove them out of the pit,resumed running the business and sold it. Lock stock and barrel.

[@jameswest8280]

I see you have the whole crew with you.

[@RafaelArdilesLemke]

Awesome red truck.

Thanks Johan

Nice!

[@brucewilson5087]

Hello from Texas. How is everything? Hope everything is going well. Haven't heard anything in nearly 7 months. A fan.

[@BrokenWrenches]

Hey man. Do you guys have a low boy???? I bought a parts truck cabover thats in cherryvale from a guy that’s supposed to tow it down here to Skiatook ok. I get the feeling he’s gonna take forever so I’m looking at other options??

[@CentralMississippiWhitetail]

G series a bad ass.

[@bigjim11566]

Had an old video pop up, looked an knew havent seen any in awhile, hope all is well with you an family

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

You've heard the one, about the monkey 🤬 the football?? Yup... Do it all the time, but usually with the skid steer... And something that out weighs it 4:1.... LOL.. Always hate seeing the old equipment go, but.... LMAO 🤣😂 always put the slow truck in the lead, otherwise they get lost🤣😂 Looks like it actually went pretty well 👍😎

[@davissons3801]

Yeah I used to feel like the monkey but the older I get I'm starting to feel like the football. I had the same thought about the old machine but I didn't have the money to pay him what it was gonna bring in scrap price. Then it would've had to have money in parts and time and who knows where to get the parts cause it wasn't a cat. It made it pretty difficult to watch it get scrapped though when the old man said it would probably run with some new batteries.

[@tuyau2poil802]

les gamins sont sympas !

[@Abritinluzon]

How old was the dozer and what year was it how much did it way good interesting video thanks

[@davissons3801]

It wasn't actually a dozer come to find out. It was an old tractor retrofitted with a blade and a cat winch. It weighed 34000. I don't know the year. I'm guessing early sixties.

[@bigcal36]

from the dash controls and the 6-71 detroit diesel engine it was an Allis Chalmers HD15 produced from 1951-1955. shipping weight was 31k lbs

[@brucebonkowski9568]

Surprising there companies on Facebook also C.and C equipment might want it instead of scrapping it the tracks rollers rear pinon

[@TheGrumpyFarmer]

I haven’t heard anything from you in quite a few months Jared hope everything‘s OK with you and the family

[@Caterpillar955]

Ratchet binders are for steel tracks. It was likely the brake bands rusted on.

[@davissons3801]

Sounds about right.

[@chuckbearden9709]

You are a awesome father , nice cab over you got there.

[@davissons3801]

Thank you sir. I appreciate that.

[@TheGrumpyFarmer]

Why did they scrap it was it beyond repair?

[@davissons3801]

I don't think it was beyond repair. The old man said it would run. I didn't have the money to spend to pay the scrap price on it so I didn't have any interest.

[@keithrobinson1331]

Didn’t look that bad to me I think I would have tried to get it to run 🤔🍻🍻👍🇺🇸

[@neilmcintosh1200]

You might just have a board starting to come loose on that trailer. The dog looks like he approves of his new humans, in pride of place on the lap near the window.. Perhaps that old dozer would have got a decent price on Ebay 4 or 5 years ago......

[@davissons3801]

Yeah I've got to find some hard wood somewhere. Last time I had a mobile unit come and saw up some pecan but I don't even know where anybody is that has a sawmill close anymore. It was a shame to just junk that old dozer. The guy said if we put some batteries in it it would probably run. Would've made a better video too.

[@rodneythurmanjr597]

If the cable's on the cable drive for the blade are stuck cut the cables and take a come along to cable strap the blade up

[@Rlearls]

I stumbled across a new channel 👍

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

Man I love that CABOVER you have a Facebook page? I'll send you some pictures of my 02 mack vision sleeper truck everything on the rig is new everything lots of extras. Oh and plenty of room for the kids 😄😄😄

[@davissons3801]

No I dropped facebook eight years ago. I'm thinking of opening a new account for marketplace though. Craigslist just sucks anymore. I'll send you my email or something.

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

@@davissons3801 awesome yep that's the only reason I have Facebook is for Facebook market place. Thanks buddy

[@chargermopar]

More American iron and copper on its way to China. Wonder how long that thing sat there and why it was abandoned?

[@davissons3801]

Yeah that is no doubt. We keep crushing these old cars too and I guess these new rigs have facial recognition to shut down when your facial expressions show fatigue. I can see where this crap is headed. Before you know it you'll be unable to drive until your social credit score is high enough. Parts for older vehicles will get hard to find and expensive. You might see this channel get western or Amish lol. The old man that had it was wheelchair bound but Nathan probably knows the story. I figured he would chime in on it.

[@chargermopar]

@@davissons3801 It looks like you are awakened as well. I have had experienced trying to fix equipment with electronic problems. There are never schematics or software available to communicate with the on board microprocessors. pretty much everything I own is non computerized and easily fixed. many parts are standard items like bearings seals and the like. Getting old machines to strip down for parts can keep many others for years. Hopefully we don't end op with hand tools and horse and buggy!

[@rodneythurmanjr597]

Make sure it's not in gear sometimes the pressure plate likes to stick.

[@kirkpalmer1709]

Looks like an old Allis Chalmers. I hate seeing good old iron getting wasted. There are people out there who could use the parts off of it at least, or would love to restore it. They don't make this stuff anymore.

[@davissons3801]

it was. I get sentimental with the stuff at times but its not my call what to do with it. I could buy it for scrap cost but im not forking out three grand or so for the thing. I have enough junk at home as it is. Your right though. Its a shame.

[@claykorth7244]

HOW MUCH??$

[@wilmamcdermott3065]

Brakes were probably applyed

[@andrewklahold2880]

I would have rebuilt that old cat, i just gotten and old 1957 d8 running first in 30 yrs have less then 3000 in it and 70, 000 by it

[@ColtonLloyd]

That looks like an old cat D6 or D7.

[@davissons3801]

Actually it was an old allis tractor with the blade retrofitted

Take a sledge hammer and pound the tracks loose we had to do it on the M-109A6 self propelled howitzer s.in the field Artillery
