    Sorry guys, a lot of stuff (most of it garbage) ends up being cut in a video this long, but I left out two things: I have been tracking costs for this project, and will be sharing the info. Also the hillbilly intake heater is still a work in progress, and the next version is waaaaaaay better. It just is gonna require some custom duct ta...errr machining work. Thanks for watching, I appreciate your guy's feedback.

    A suggestion. The hydraulic lines that cross in front of the firewall were routed that way because of the pony motor. Since you don't have a pony motor, they could be rerouted across the top of the bell housing with the battery box mounted above them. There is not a lot of work involved, they could be either hose or pipe. This would clear up the control station and the firewall and make for a far cleaner look.

    Man, you make old stuff look GOOD! You could easily work in a museum if you wanted. That bearing with the chip missing - I'm pretty sure that's what's known as a "Max Fill" bearing. It has a few extra balls in there to handle heavier loads, and it can't be assembled like a more standard bearing. The chip is a relief ground in so the last ball or two can be inserted before the cage goes in to space the balls apart. I always enjoy your videos!

    I second the comments below praising your effort. I will add that the "chip" in the old ball bearing is a filler notch. When the manufacturer needs more balls to reach the desired capacity than can be fitted by offsetting the races and slipping the balls in between the races, and then centering the races and adding the cage, a filler notch is necessary to add the extra balls. Presumably technology has improved since the old bearing was made, and the new bearing has the necessary capacity without the additional balls.

    Here is another suggestion that is really late. If you or when you smash your finger again and the nail turns purple take a needle, get it red hot, grab it with plyers push the tip through your injured nail right in the middle of the purple area. It won't hurt but it will squirt blood which will release the pressure and a lot of pain. I'm really impressed with the way you are taking on this cat. I drove my brother's D2 that was about the same age. It had a pony motor that you started first to get the oil pressure up before trying to use it to start the main engine. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

    There's a lot of stuff jammed in that hydraulic tank and you managed to sort it out. Well done. A tip I learnt is when putting on something heavy like that cover is to cut the heads off longer bolts and cut a slot in the end. This means you can you can use a screwdriver to get then out later. It also works when you are lining up on dowels.

Regarding the pre heater you need to insulate the heater element from the steel intake pipe because if it shorts out from the heater element to the steel wall on the intake it will only work from the posetiv pole on the heater core to the short so it does not work up to its full potential. Otherwise great work

    You said in a previous video that you were told you installed the fan backwards. In someone else's video they said the fans were reversed depending on the season. In winter they blew front to back to keep the operator warm. In summer they were reversed blowing back to front to keep engine heat off the operator. I know nothing about this, but I'm sure Cat operators and mechanics of that era can give you the proper information, Great video series, happy I found your channel!! Best of luck.....................

    I'd be so lost on a build like this, I commend you on your patients and knowledge and if you don't know it, you are able to find the info you need plus you have great followers who do. I rebuild woodworking machinery and it's a piece of cake compared to this.

    Hey Hillbilly! I've watched all the videos! (in order, as they have been released) Dozer is lookin' freakin' great. Can't wait to see you push some dirt.
