newbie here looking for info new to the dozer repair side and operating , bought the d4 at rbauctions and it would only steer one way sometimes the other ,both pedal to the floor ,after some troubleshooting I figured out the bands were bad and took them out with the clutches too ,I have ordered a service manual but it's not here yet so looking for spec's on clutch pack thickness so I can either order them or just get my bands relined and put it back together,from my reading it seems there are alot of very knowledgable people on here :notworthy the machine is a 1989 cat d4c serial #1RJ00706 thanks in advance what are your thoughts on aftermarket clutches also ,cat parts are stupid high in price
Here's what I found in a quick look on SIS: (2) Thickness of nine new driving discs and nine new driven discs and one new driven disc ... 52.39 ± 1.80 mm (2.063 ± .071 in) Thickness of one new 6Y7914 Disc ... 3.45 ± 0.13 mm (.136 ± .005 in) Thickness of one new 5K8616 Disc ... 1.905 ± .05 mm (.0750 ± .002 in) Thickness of one new 5V593 Disc ... 4.19 ± 0.18 mm (.165 ± .007 in) NOTE: The 5V593 Disc must be installed next to the drum.
You need fancy tooling to strip out the clutch packs? tctractors
thank you kshansen ,that is what I was looking for but I guess I won't be getting a manual from cat $1300 is not in the budget right now
found a manual on ebay so guess I won't be going blind for now on
