More information is needed.If it has a Cat built hydraulic system you will be in luck the information is here,but if it is something else there are a lot more venerable.Cat built more than one setup it could be, so a model no. would help if it is Cat.This bunch is into pictures so if not Cat built pictures are probably the best way to identify.

Thank you Ray54....It is a 1957 Cat D69U serial no 9U25064. Does this help?
OOPS can't seem to upload a picture of it.
If it's Cat original hydraulics it most likely is the #46 hydraulic control unit. They are pretty much self contained but make sure you get all the lines, linkages and most important the drive coupling hardware.
Old Magnet......I have not seen the dozer yet, but he is telling me that the only thing upgraded is the electric start and the newer style bolt on sprocket segments, that everything else is original Cat. Said he was using the dozer and broke an ear off the drive line, he removed the hydraulic pump and had it repaired and he has all the parts ready to be put back on but he doesn't have time to put it back on. I am planning a trip in April to go and get the hyd pump put back on it and making sure all is in operational order before arranging transport (we are over 500 miles away)since there is not a way to load the dozer without being able to lift and lower the blade. I was wanting some kind of diagram of how everything goes together and a parts list (just in case something is missing) so that we know what we're looking at with doing the repair ourselves. Thanks
If you can, get the s/n off the hydraulic control unit. It is located on the left hand side of the rear face of the hydraulic control tank assembly.
s/n most likely begins with 25Cxxxx but there can be other models. Even though they are similar it would be best to know the exact s/n.
Once identified I have the info your looking for.
Thank you Old Magnet....I will place a call tomorrow and see if the owner can get me the information you specified. Thanks again and have a good evening
Old Magnet......Talked to the owner today and this is the information that he gave me.
It has 7F2704 on the hydraulic tank.
It has 5F5131 on the hydraulic filter housing.
S/N on dozer is 9U25064
Hope this is helpful and thanks for any help you can offer.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
