Well i can see a total tear down in your future , IMHO the only things that i would not take apart down to bare housings would be the hyd. cylinder , Yep that means Every thing else and when done making all sorts of parts piles and bare castings and housings then ya can start the cleaning and checking and putting the pieces and parts back together. Years back a new hire was sent out to a oil well drilling location with a new John Deere 750 dozer with 72 working hours on it to reclaim the location and i asked him if he knew how to SQUEEZE the pits as there were two working pits and one BIG blow pit and i got oh yea i know how to SQUEEZE PITS . Well the lowboy driver calls on the radio and tells me that he had dropped that 750 off at the location and was head on to the next move and it was not fifteen min. later when this new operator calls on the radio and say he is STUCK , not something that was not uncommon in the patch to stick a dozer, So that means i am going to have to hook up to the extra lowboy and load another dozer and drive the 30 miles to that location and drag him out . When i got there and drove back to the location first i could not find the dozer or the operator ( he went for coffee and left the location) and i get looking around for the dozer on a FLAT 250 x350 foot location , other then the dike of the blow pit That dike was maybe four foot tall and i drove over to the pit and setting in the middle of this PIT was the top of the ROPS and the top pipe off the muffler sticking up out of the water , Air intake is under water . With great effort and a second dozer we got it out and up on the lowboy and back to the shop and when done tearing it down only the frame work was in one big chunk .

My current collection includes a 1938 F20, 1945 H, 1946 H, and the recently purchased 1951 H.
