D7E Head Casting #'s

All I can tell you is head 1M2960 crosses to head assembly 7M2023 and 4S7464. 4N7000 is too new of a number for my books.

I have also seen the 7M2023 on 1 or 2 websites. The 4N7000 seems to be everywhere. I'll be talking to our head shop shortly to see if they know someone locally who can repair the ones I have. When I called War Parts And Equipment yesterday, they didn't have any in stock. However, if it helps anyone, they mentioned that Diesel Cast Welding in Blaine, MN could do a good job with them. I called them and they offer a 1yr warranty on their work with all new parts; quoted 1k$ each. I didn't think that was too bad. I just hate to pay big bucks to ship them 1300 miles.

Thanks for the info, Zane

Where are you located. If not in to big of a hurry maybe someone can bring them to the national show in Edgerton, Wi. I could get them to the shop from there.

www.locknstitch.com is worth a look too, these guys seem to have the market cornered on mechanical repair of cracked cast like this. Also not a cheap date though.

Unfortunately I'm in Georgia. Thanks for the offer though.

Appreciate the leads on suppliers

I'll check them out too.

Thanks for the input all, Zane

We need to go on a OPRM ! ("Operation Rome Plow Mission") to the Hon-Don Forest, there is or was probably hundreds of D7E's left over there after Nam.

Bet it would be a gold mine over there Rome/KG.

Old Magnet, would you happen to have the contact for Regal? SURELY the number that I called was the wrong one......@ www.regalcorp.com. They quoted $1700+ EACH BARE!! I told the guy that i had already been quoted $1625 EACH LOADED.

Thanks, Zane
