Allis Chalmers HD5 Dozer; Sunk in the Ground, Will it Drive Out?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
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!

Love this channel! Wish I could be so relaxed about my projects!
Your Dad has an amazing "playground" for us "gearheads".
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.
I dont understand how this guy doesnt have millions of subs. My favourite creator on youtube by far.

It’s be you and me and others are not sharing this channel,!!! Thanks BigAl California
Man, your grandfather has a treasure trove of goodies 👍
People go on and on about Cummins, but man those old Detroits were absolutely bulletproof.

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

you are so right cummins are ok but those old jimmys did everything and well ahd sounded like nothing else
Dang! That little HD5 is so cool! I think I need one of those machines! 😂
Simply amazing, literally drove it out of its grave. Can’t wait to see the next video.
Dude thats so cool a testament to old school technology!
That empty fuel tank sound as you opened the cover and the dipstick for the fuel brought vivid memories flooding back of my young years operating an old 769 CAT dump truck...
I was amazed, that with the tracks sunk so deep, that you were able to move the cat so easily. Love those little Jimmies.

Uuuhuh huh you said Jimmies
Most interesting will it start videos ever. Can't believe it was that easy
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.
Great video, it brings back fond memories as I learnt to drive dozers when I was 17, and it was on a HD6, so just one size up from this one. Love all your content, and all your toys 😁
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!

Back in day that was my day bought stuff like that for next to nothing so yes just buy another beater that ran.
I was just thinking that it was a long time since you filmed something from the backyard. There is so much cool stuff there!
I can't believe that Thing fired right up!🤯
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
That was perfect timing..! I've been thinking about re-watching one of your previous woodland vehicle adventures... and here you are with a new one! Thank you.
I just thought of a John Wick reference for the parts that you have saved to replace things when they break. “I have served. I will be of service”
My dad worked at Allis Chalmers for years. For as much stuff they built, there’s not much left out there by them
You can't beat those old Dozers. I learned how to operate on a 1957 HD 6 . I was 16 yrs old. I thought I was too dog running that old Dozer...That old Detroit sounds good. Great Video...

Can you imagine the manufacturing that makes that blade? Quite the piece of steel.
Allis Chalmers. Thats a mighty good show from the old dozer. Makes old International and Caterpillar look a bit, second fiddle to the AC.
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. Great video again !
I must say that I am enjoying your videos! Your dry sense of humor, mechanical knowledge, and decent camera work all make for an entertaining production... you deserve more subs! Thanks!
This was a great video. I had to laugh when I heard the sound he made when trying to slide under the dozer feet first 😄
Truly enjoyed this machine and that amazing Detroit diesel. The scenery sure changed from southern NM
I used to have a HD5 and a 6. Both of mine were loaders. Your video makes me miss them. You have a new subscriber.
Love the bulldozer. Hopefully we will see more.
I must say thatHD5 Allis Chalmers is a real Beaut! Good find. Thank you for the VID ..
That sounded promising , and now it doesn't this video is hilarious. I would love to have an old machine like that that is a way cool toy
Dads backyard has all the good stuff!
Great fun watching! tHanks for the video (Great time of year to be visiting the woods. Keep enjoying!)
Another great project. This old gal just needs some love, she's not done working yet.
Excellent video just goes to show you can't keep these old diesel engines down they run forever it's quite amazing thank you for sharing
Great video thanks for sharing. It was fun to watch
Nice recovery.
That Dozers pretty awesome, but then again so is that huge press setting in the screen shot just past the Dozer! 😮
You have the best fun, James
Haven't stopped by in a while and I was getting curious what you're up to and got a alert for this video 👍You always have the coolest toys to play with and show us😎
I just found your channel today. I watched your 2 buck Jeep vid and this one. I feel we both have been trying to make something from nothing all our lives.
Another feat performed by the Equipment Whisperer! I learned something new - didn't know there were dozers with Detroits in them. Sounds so cool!

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.
Lots of great "Toys" ! Thanks.
I can only give one like, this video deserves far more than that.

Neat video. Dozer looks like it's a grate candidate for a rebuild video
Love that scenery
Great episode yet again!
Well done! I wish I didn’t pave my driveway when I see videos like this. I want a dozer bad now. Lol
Awesome channel i find it entertaining
Your dad's got some great junk. That sort of property that your dad's got would be my idea of A Paradise Island . .
intersting old school stuff and only 39k subs... youtube isn't doing you justice
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.
Cool project
always having fun
Nice work
That's a really cool old dozer. I really like your channel. I'd be dozing the entire property on a Sunday just for fun.
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
Sir, you are having entirely too much fun 😅
I love diesel engines they're so resilient...
New subscriber, great video, thank you from nyc
Great video as always!
Excellent video Glenn :) nice 2 dozer on Allis Chalmers , remember hearing about them and never seeing one person but video did it Lol ! Hopefully get both fix up to do lots jobs on too !
Nice old machine.
Just gotta love a Detroit Diesel gr8 content as always
Thats awesome thanks for sharing
Gotta love diesel engines for the fact there's no carburetor to rebuild after it sets a while! 😂 Like you mentioned, almost *turn key* every time. Nice work getting the HD5 running again James. Enjoyed the video. Happy wrenching on your next project. 🔧🔩 Clean looking H1 Hummer too!

Maybe no carb , but Detroits are known for stuck racks and injectors from sitting.

Congrats LBG on getting the little HD5 Jimmie started and running good, kind-of..
Good 👍🏻 job
Dad left it work ready...........even left ear plugs on the levers. I would love to see the American backhoe come alive as well
Way to go lowbuck keep up the great content
James, looks like you were having fun. There's a certain Allis B with magneto I need to get running. Diesel that keeps 10 years....what a case for switching from gas.
Now that I have a small track loader working, I find a dozer would make a good accomplice. 😉 Then I'm also sure a small excavator would go good with both, and even better if I had a dump truck. 😎

You are one lucky guy
Detroits and a tough old dozer. Get it running
That thing runs Ace's 👍
Awesome...
Excellent the chugger is alive
It's a Detroit, loud, dirty, inefficient BUT you can't kill one 😁
This is a great Video I love these Allis Chalmers Dozers especially the HD5 ,Frozen steering clutches is a very common problem along with Hydraulic leaks, Where are you with all this cool stuff ?
Nice ..
You lucky dog 😄❤
Easy on that little dumper with that dozer "
nice find, would love to get a dozer fer the folks ranch
My dads 871 would sit for years and start right up
looks like where I grew up, just more fun stuff in the bushes. Always neat to see what you pull out next. Is that another JD 350 hiding in the bushes? I'm looking for a blade for one
Nice HD5, some other nice stuff, as well. I find the general mess and disrepair of the place a bit unnerving. If one cannot keep up, one should sell some stuff.
i ran away from a 992 john deere that blew a seal in turbo on intake side and she started revving from oil as fuel being pumped into intake! ive never heard a diesel rev like that! only to have shut it down would have been board on intake
Once I saw it had a Detroit, the suspense of wondering if it would run was gone. Barring a massive hole in the block or other catastrophic damage, they always run. Even if they're stuck just let em soak and they'll run once loose.
That little dozer runs great. I think the left turn brake will break loose eventually.
