    Need push rods for a '68 Case 580ck 188 Diesel

    Update.... pulled the head off the 188 and found a valve had gotten sucked into the cylinder and subsequently punched a 3rd hole in the head. It's toast. I went in search of another 188 and found one in Ky. but the gentleman wanted $2500 for it which was a bit more than I will willing to give...

    Greetings all. Who knew becoming a land developer would find me owning such a variety of heavy equipment but here I am again with my potential acquisition of an Allis Chalmers HD16DP-7748. I do not know for certain but I am going to put this around the 1967/68 vintage. It's certainly larger...

    D6B wet clutch stuck/won’t engage.

    Hey Scotty, I have both the D6B and a JD350b. I was going to ask you what year the D6B was (mine is a '60) but you had indicated it already sold elsewhere. Big difference in size and capability between the D6B and the JD350b. What was going to be your primary use for the dozer? Also.... is...

    D333 turbo retrofit?

    I thought I had heard rumblings about a turbo kit but wasn't certain it applied to the D333. I also know that the injector timing would have to be adjusted for the turbo. I have gotten feedback that the drive train may not be able to stand up to the extra power of the engine and it probably...

    D333 turbo retrofit?

    Ok... here I am thinkin to much again. So my '60 D6B (44A) has what I understand to be the D333(a) engine which is the non-turbo version. Currently it runs great and I haven't really had any issues in pushing trees over and stacking up brush thus far. I understand however that the D333(b)...

    '60 D6b steering issues

    Hi Nic, I do post on ACMOC.ORG. Is there a relationship between this forum and it? Is there a reason I shouldn't be posting here? I assumed they were completely separate.

    '60 D6b steering issues

    Greetings all, I have overcome my right steering issues with the D6B which might turn out to be a love/hate thing. Pulled the access covers off the back and top of the differential case and found about 3" of what I could only characterize as gear oil in the bottom of the cavity partially...

    A Cat D6b... my newly acquired step child.... Age? 44A1053

    Hi Dennis, Thank you very much. Getting ready to submit a new topic for the D6b. Shame on me for not discovering this before purchase but it turns out the unit has a right steering issue. It barely turns... I mean just inches when you give it full brake and pull the lever all the way back but...
