It took 9 months to replace this undercarriage (12,000 hour dozer)
DieseJL is back on the $2,000 Liebherr PR731C dozer. After getting it back into service, lightly, it is time for some major surgery. Are we up to the task? Watch as it all unfolds…
Dozer FINALLY Moves the Way it SHOULD ~ Full Transmission Rebuild on “Alester” ~ Cat D3 LGP
Since DAY 1 with this little Cat Dozer, I haven’t been able to use the transmission properly, and today is FINALLY the day to correct that! We’ll be FULLY rebuilding the transmission on “Alester” with the help of parts from @CostexTractorParts!
Now that the engine is prepped and parts have arrived, it’s time to get the transmission put back together and see how well this old dozer runs with ALL of it’s gears!
Finding parts for old machines can be difficult, but working with @CostexTractorParts made that process MUCH easier that I am used to! They had everything I needed to get my old Caterpillar D3 LGP put back together and moving again!

CTP Liners, crankshaft and camshaft are all installed for CAT 977! I am having a blast building up this 10.5L 3306.

DieseJL started the long process of rebuilding the 3306 10.5L Straight Six Diesel from our 1972 Caterpillar 977L Track Loader. After getting everything we need for a full out of frame overhaul from Costex Tractor Parts, we dive into this project and find out that we are nowhere near ready to complete this rebuild. Nevertheless, progress is made!

DieseJL continue the long process of rebuilding the 3306 10.5L Straight Six Diesel from our 1972 Caterpillar 977L Track Loader. After getting everything we need for a full out of frame overhaul from Costex Tractor Parts, we complete the major assembly of this engine and even throw on some paint!
