Bare tractor weight 14,000 lbs, add  3,000 for blade and hydraulics.  Engine parts are hard to find.  Most anyone can provide rings.  I got standard size rod bearings and some valves from M & M surplus a few years ago.   The sleeves are very hard so you it should run reasonably well with just new rings.  The sleeves can to bored but finding oversized pistons will be tuff!!

according to the nebraska test the DD weight is  15,515 lbs. ,a DDH should be a couple 100lbs. more because of the hillside tractor width. this the weight without any attatchments.

The 14,000 lbs comes from Oliver sales brochure dated 4/54!
