Thanks Al,

Just what I thought, I need to get a bigger truck and trailer. LOL All tho with the loader assembly off the tractor I could haul it but would have to make 2 trips and it is about 800 miles oneway. Oh well the price of having Yellow Fever. Thanks again. John

John, the guy who hauled my 42A did it with a 24K dual tandem GN and a GMC 3500 Duramax. He also had a JD front end loader bucket and frame pinched in between the GN and the counterweights of my 42A. My machine was quoted as being 17,500, but it also had a set of log forks and about an extra couple of hundred pounds of dried clay on it. If you want to use the VW Rabbit pickup with the landscapers trailer, maybe not. Send me some pics!

Thanks Bruce, you seen my outfit at Tonto's. A 2003 2500HD with 8100 vortec allison auto and a 20' single wheel 2 axle 14,000# GN. I've grossed 23,300 with it hauling a D17000 Genset. She was MAXED OUT. Did the job tho and no problems, 850 miles. What pics are you looking for? John

John, I'd like to see your 11A when you get it. I'd like a shot of the rippers if you can, when you can. Good luck.

Will do Bruce. Mike said it was an after market, but was done good, when I get it will send detailed pics and if there is a tag or something will let ya know. John

What year would ser number 11A1417 be? Thanks, John

The 11A came out in 1955 so I,m only guessing but would say about 1960 or 61. The 11A2596, 933E came out in 1967 according to the Cat SNID book.

Thanks SJ. Would it have the D4400 motor? John
