  • In this video I need to move an old Allis Chalmers HD5 bulldozer that has been sitting so long it sunk into the ground. It works out much better than I expected!

    I have one exactly like this one, but without a canopy, out at the ranch. My wife inherited the ranch and the HD5 has been sitting since the 80's. I haven't had the opportunity to get it going yet, but this video encourages me to do so. Her brother parked it in the barn and it hasn't moved since. Now that the temperature is tolerable here in Texas, I am going to see what it does.

      No diesels compare to the reliability of a Detroit. Not so much the new ones but the old 2 strokes are damn near indestructible.

    Your Dad's (or was it your Granddad's?) property is an absolute storehouse of old vehicles. It looks like he just parked anything he wasn't using and instead of getting it running again next time he needed it he'd just find another old beater that ran...then parked it when that job was done. Wash, rinse, repeat. I bet it's a daily treasure hunt!

    Those ol’ Detroits are incredible! I have one in a yard truck I turned into a deer stand that may get moved once every ten years and all I ever have to do is throw a battery in it and it screams to life. Emphasis on the “screams” cause that sucker is loud.

    I didn't think I would ever see an HD5 A.C again and it brings back a lot of precious memories of my youth and Uncle Bill. My Uncle Bill had two a gas and a deasil. It was my first piece of Heavy Equipment I learned to operate, in the Summer of 69, pulling a breaking plough. That steering clutch brings back a lot of memories as my Uncle was always tampering with something to keep it going. However, I could line the trailer hitch up turning side ways. Lol

    I have heard a 425 cat run full throttle twice. Once, after the fuel in my dual 150 gallon tamks ran from the fuel pickup, going up a mountain in Virgibia. The guy that brought me some fuel used a gas soaked rag to "reprime" the system. That thing screamed ! Once, insside a shop in Snowshoe, Pa. After replacing an injector, the mechanic held it to the floor. The sound inside thar shop, wow. Open 8" stacks.

    Another great content video! If ya end up needing to drop those belly pans dig a shallow trench with the excavator and straddle it parallel. Makes it a lot easier to crawl under there with a floor jack and a block of wood. Once you get all the bolts out, you can get out of the way and pop the jack handle.

      A dozer/grading/paving engineering contractor near me has a large old Allis with an 8V71, so they actually had them up to a fairly big size. This unit looks to be about the size of a Cat D6 or slightly bigger.

    Grousers dont look too bad, It runs, moves, Hyd lifts blade, look it over to see how much you want to put in it. My grandad & his 2 brothers logged w/an Allis D6 a little before WW2-during& after- even had a small saw mill- then the Big Timber outfits bought up all the land, made it too hard to access timber to log. So they shut down their logging& started planting christmas trees. Their most money making crop. You make a good Video

    Those old 2-53 2-71 2-92 Detroit engines were decent engines, they were all mainly used for equipment, industrial purposes and some military equipment as well , one of the main things that was the down fall of those engines was the injection rack inside the valve cover , at least for an engine that sat for a very long time , I've only experienced it twice with a 353 in a barko 130 and a 671 in a 70s ford Ln 9000 .... but the brother engines the 8v71 and 8v92 engines were well sought after for GATR racing exceeding 1000hp and insane amounts of torque! And if nobody knows what GATR racing is , it was a bunch of guys and gals in the late 70s early 80s who built thier own junk Peterbuilts and Kenworths , Marmons , Fords , internationals , Freightliners on circle tracks ...
