Need s/n's for tractor and both engines
yes OM, i am waiting for the seller to get me the information still.
Hi, lil cat mec.
From my own limited experience and reports from others, the 951A was not a bad machine, the B series had over-heating issues and the C series was a GREAT machine except for one tiny minor detail - it had a habit of splitting final drive cases - possibly had too much 'grunt' for its engineering. All were pretty neat to operate, especially with a 4-in-1 bucket and rippers.
Just my 0.02.
Thank you Deas, hope all is well down under!
Hi, lil cat mec.
I wouldn't know what's happening DowNunda. I'm not there. You poor unfortunates 'topside' are stuck with me for two years. LOL.
Just my 0.02.
Just an update, I asked my work (Western States CAT) if they could haul it on a return load (they were going to only be about 60 miles from it (368 miles from the shop....) got word on Thursday they would haul it for a 1/4 of the price compared to any private hauler I talked to.. here it is, the following Tuesday and it’s home!
It is a 951B, prefix 86J1212, the other engine looks to be 04R1585 from my research, they are both D330C’s
Check your s/n again on the spare engine 4Rxxxx is a D4600 engine.
I think your 4R is a 4Bxxxx Industrial Engine which would make both engines D330C's.
Yes OM you are correct, I had a second look today and it was a B not an R. I plan to change all the filters this weekend so I can see what kind of shape the rest of the machine is in.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"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."
