On the other hand as I'm driving tomorrow morning down the coast of Maine sipping a Tim Horten's coffee, I may decide that everything I have just stated is bogus, and that I need to rethink everything. If the undercarriage looks good, if the motor sounds good, if there are no leaks, etc., etc., then I think I might go for it. If I don't buy it and don't find an alternative machine, then I'll have to wait and that's something I don't think I want to do. If I buy the D7 and fix the steering problem, then I'm ready to start working my land. I really want to start working the ground as soon as I can.

In about a months time the logging of my property will be finished. At this moment my gut is telling me that I could do everything I need to do with D7 with the straight blade, but it may take longer and I will have to work harder at it. And I don't think I could afford the shipping if I were to buy out of state after finding a better bulldozer. I don't think I want to wait for the "right" dozer to come along. (I didn't ask him about a ripper - if he has one of those for the D7 I would love to have it.) And he's got another D7 with a tilt blade but I doubt I could afford it. He's got a root rake too, that supposedly fits the D7. He owns about 30 of them, and sold a D8 last week. He's a merchant marine and his hobby is collecting bull dozers. I just got off the phone with the guy who is selling the D7.

Will I be able to do that to some degree with a non-tilting blade on a D7C? Should I consider D6's as well? One of the things I am hoping to do with whatever dozer I end up buying, is to be able to push small to medium sized softwood stumps out of the ground. The other know fact is that this particular dozer comes with a straight blade without tilting capabilities. If it turns out that it needs a new steering clutch, is that a repair that can be done by someone with little knowledge and experience in the maintenance and repair of bulldozers? The assumption is that I would seek out help when doing the repairs. The owner says he thinks it's a linkage problem. What little I know about this particular 7C is that it runs fine except one of the tracks won't engage when trying to make a turn (not sure what side doesn't turn). Which of the two is the heaviest? It's not apparent to me when I search the internet. I have noticed there are a lot of low cost deals to be had on these two models - older D6's and D7's. The transmission identification number I have been told is 4H8440. In addition to machine protection against impacts and airborne debris, the specialty dozers can be ordered with an impact-resistant cab, application-specific undercarriage and a specialty blade. is 17A5871 which supposedly is a 1956 machine made in Peoria. The D7 can also be ordered with specialized guarding to take on the challenges of waste, landfill, forestry or land clearing.
