Deas Plant My mate stuck some photos of me ripping with the D9 at my current job on the "classic machinery.net/forum/" website under dozers Neil
Nice pics. Looks like that dozers in pretty decent shape.
Hy Lashlander yeah,this is its first job with me,the previous owners had kept it in excellent condition.the only jobs I did were to fit new bearings to the left side front hydraulic ram blade end,remove shims from the other one,new bearings to the cross shaft for the rams and a few ball joints etc on the steering clutch linkges and the throttle linkages. Its fitted with a Komatsu 155 blade which needs a bit of tightening up other than that its in pretty good shape, Regards Neil

Here's some nice footage of a late D9G doing some ripping somewhere in Italy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNE_orxj0us I kinda like that selfmade debris guard on the blade. But that noise from the tracks is awsome! I would wear earplugs if I had to run it.
that's a big powerful old machine. looks great for rippin' how's it going over there?
Wolf going ok at the minute-customer is very happy with the amount of stone being produced. What about yourself? Regards Neil
