I have a JD 450B dozer that spun a main bearing in the late 80's and was parked to be fixed later...
20 years later a kind diesel mech. neighbor's son in law offered to fix it for us - pulled the engine, got the engine apart and back together w/ new crankshaft and all (we just paid for parts) and brought the engine back over and has not had a chance to get it put back in the dozer...between keeping his father-in law's old/broken machinery running, his main job as a diesel mech, 2nd job as a mech and property he manages, he hasn't had the time and i'd hate to trouble him to do it...
so, upstate new york guys (albany/schen area), does anyone know a good diesel mech. who moonlights or has a reg. business,
i don't know if we want to take it to kc. canary due to expense and that it is a situation of picking up someone else's half-finished job...since it is an odd job i'd want to give a smaller business or individual the $$$
so, anyone know anyone...if so, le me know name/numberpnumber
thanks!
