I found a pair of D8 cats and was wondering if anyone could tell me the year of them. One serial no. is 8R482 and the other is a 1H4217 . I'm trying to figure out how old they are and if they are worth looking at. What hp rating are they, Both run and look good. Any info would be helpful! Thanks Doug

Thanks for the info gwhdiesel75. I think they are a little too old for me for using but if someone is interested in them let know they both run, one has a newer engine in it with only 1500 hrs and the other only has 400 hrs on a brand new set of rails. the gentleman wants 3000.00 ea one. Thanks Doug

Too bad I don't have space for a kitty that big, let alone 2 of them!

Testimonials

"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."
