No I didn't make him an offer. Didn't want to travel to get it when I found one closer that was running for about the same as his asking price. Good luck with your new crawler.

Subgates,
I thought I remember seeing your dozer. It was on CL a couple of months ago. I too spoke with the grandson. It was a little more than I wanted to travel for to get it. I remember him saying it ran about 4/5 years ago. Should be an EZ fix.

I believe that's where it fits. I can measure it for you tomorrow when I get out to the barn. You even have the extra pin to secure it.

I like it. I see it has the optional fender birdfeeder. Speaking of fenders weren't that style use on the 31Ga?

Since Chris was kind enough to list the measurements it should be easy enough to make one up.

Thanks for taking the time to measure it up.

Ran across this interesting engine swap. Nice to look at but I thought the stand HG engine was under powered can't image one with a cub engine.

Chris,
can you measure the length of the angle piece for me.
Thanks, Kirk

I located this on youtube. It had an interest hook up for the tilt blade. It also has the angle piece I asked about and an auxiliary trans I would mind adding to mine.

Thanks for the photo of the blade and implements. Still think I'd rather work my sickle bar off my farmall cub. I can't imanage  there would be too many of those sickle bar mower still around.

Thanks for the additional photos. I printed them out so I can have them on hand when I'm ready to tackle that project.

And another

Trying to add photos

Thanks, that look like it. I like the tilt too but that can come later down the road maybe when the weathers a bit warmer. The good new is I have an extra control lever that just plug up to use for the tilt cylinder.
It's a 1952. I tried to attach some photos but they were too large.

The blade in the post is similar to mine. So maybe I don't have an anderson even though the tag up be the grill sez anderson Thanks for posting it. It look like I can make that pieces with a couple pieces of pipe and some channel iron.
