Thanks for sharing the pictures of the 9G. When that tractor was new it was a lifesaver of manual labor. After spending over 45 years operating a 3T dozer periodically, I still enjoy the bark of the large bore 4 cylinders under load.

D-4 7U-43159 with 4S dozer and Cat 40 scraper, D-7 3T-1179 with Cat 7S hydraulic dozer, D-7 17A 13,944, D-8 14A-1160 with Cat 8S cable dozer, Cat 12-99E-4433 Grader. All runners and users.

Thanks for the complements. Here is a you tube link of my friend Wilson running the RD7. I wish the sound was better because I also love the sound of the big bore 4 cylinder under load. Thanks Jim https://youtu.be/mBrKLZGI51I
