Edit - found the manuals. Thanks to all that helped.

try ebay , i got a service book on there, just and make sure it covers your serial number.

try d4c charlie on this site for a manual

DP, when I was buying D2 manuals about 6-7 years ago, I found that there wasn't just one, single book to cover the whole machine. What I did end up buying was -

-Form #FE030524-02 "Servicemen's Reference Book, Caterpillar Diesel Engines (4" Bore 4 - Cylinder) for D311 Industrial, D311 Electric Set, D311 Marine, D2 Tractor, No.212 Motor Grader" - this manual covers everything engine related, basically from the bellhousing forward.

-Form #FE030441-01 "Servicemen's Reference Book, Caterpillar D2 Tractor, 3J, 5J, 4U, and 5U Series" - this manual covers the rest of the chassis (tracks, undercarriage, final drives, transmission/rear end, all clutches and brakes). This manual even covers the later build D2's with the longer chassis that can have the main clutch serviced without splitting the tractor.

-Form 12238 "D2 Tractor, 50" Gauge, Parts Catalog, Serial Numbers 5U1 to 5U13236 Inclusive" - parts manual for entire tractor.

Since you also have a Cat factory blade and hydraulic unit on your D2, you'll also need books to cover those items. If you're lucky and you still have all the serial number tags on your machine, you can use them to find the manuals to cover those assemblies. I've personally accumulated books that cover the #2A and #2S Hydraulic Bulldozers in the 5G, 7G, 7F, and 9F serial number ranges, also Operator's, Parts, and Service Manuals that cover the #44 Hydraulic Control Systems in the 4W, 7W, 8W, and 9W serial number ranges, plus a Form #12914-2 "Servicemen's Reference Book, Caterpillar Hydraulic Controls and Equipment" that is a good all-around manual for the #41, #44, and #46 Hydraulic Units. Long story short, you'll likely end up with a whole stack of books to cover everything on your machine by the time you're finished. Of my stack of books, it's about 50%reproduction to 50% original, but I'm not a paper collector so it doesn't bother me if some are repro's. Just need the information they contain.

Thanks for all of the great info.

I've been keeping an eye on ebay for a while, but seem to be coming up empty for all of the manuals that I don't already have. I'll try some different searches and keep hunting.

PM sent to Charlie.

Anybody else have spares (including the blade, hyd unit, and d2n winch.. the paper copy instead of the pdf)? I'll update the post once everything has been found.

I believe is a Hyster production and they have since been bought out. The good thing is that GOOGLE will find the Info on it. There is a Thread sometime since September where an inquiry was made and a fellow member found the link to a PDF on the Winch. You might try doing a SEARCH on here to see if you can locate it.

Thanks for the reply, but (as implied in my last post) I have already searched and found the pdf. There's a few spots in the pdf where the words are cut off, so I'd also like to purchase a real manual if somebody has one available.
