Hi! After standing stil for 15 years i got it running again, using my time off from work. just thought i had to share it with you. This was number 5 in production, been owned by Rana Gruber AS (where i work) since 1980, Bought from Phoenix Arizona. Had just done 900 hours when it came on site. This article is from the local news paper (im sorry but it is in Norwegian) And a little Video

Hi. Thanks. It'd running a Detroit v71 v16 at around 600/700hp. Clark 8 speed, 4 reverse and 4 forward. I dont think she is comming back to service, but atleast she is opperational and movable. So im looking forward to winter so i can test here on the old hauler road. She was put aside cause the company where im working at went from open pit minig to underground mining. Alot of machines whent to recycling.. Terex haulers Electrahaul mark 36 P&h 2100, 2300.. We still have some old electra haul 85tons.. but it need some much love. If anyone know where i can find detroit diesel 149 engine parts i would be happy. Sorry for any miss spellings.. Regards Daniel Nilssen
Thanks for the informations about this grader. I hope the big boy get sometimes again at work for help out or something. But the important thing is that he is in good hands
