        That was my '55 M37-A. Very nice truck. Pic was taken the day I bought the place, before it was cleaned up. I don't live that way. LaughingLaughing I was sick of winter last fall.

            David,

            I'm sorry that your alleged attempt to  usurp and codify a Chinese tractor repair manual was accidentally cut short… See you later, somewhere…

              Sorry you feel that way David, I feel you could be a great asset to the site development. I have migrated sites before, and when you're doing it all in your “spare time” it makes it even tougher.

              In your infinite wisdom you must surely understand that behind any change, regardless of how it is driven, there will be dissent from conservatives – and collateral damage. So far I only know of two ex-prominent members that have detracted, understandable considering their situations.

              I think a migration rate over 95% would be impossible anyway.

              I'm just sayin'

                  Question about the cheap air filter, do ya think the blue fibers might come loose and become another way to clog the radiator?  I see the benifit of it, but does it hold up?

                   

                  Yes, it holds up very well. In fact, you can even do better in price than Ray did by buying the stuff in bulk rolls.

                    '06 Yuchai YCT306-5A dozer, rubber tracks, manual clutch, Optional FEL equipped.

                    Original battery, clutch, etc., small radiator repair, and extensive mods and upgrades. Only real issue that I didn't ask for was that it was originally shipped with one of the carrier roller shafts installed bacwards.

                    Coming up on 600 hours.

                        Thanks, just wish they could enlarge more. Would be really helpful for detailed images.

                         

                        I forgot to mention that those GE engine packs are the actual integral cylinder head, water jacket, valve gear & injector, cylinder liner, piston & rings, and con rod w/bearings all in one very heavy assembly. I think around 1,000 lbs.
