6/22/2023 0 Comments Cat d7 dozer serial number 48a5814![]() ![]() Frankly I don't see how it had anything to do with higher failure rates of the time tested D7E transmission, we've own and operated them both!! Yet my guess is there will be those who come and say -"No no those trannys were weak such and such told me so!!! Chum. On another note the later model D7E's with a D333 turbocharge engine was rated at 180 horsepower the same as the D7F's with a D333 or a 3306 engine at the same R.P.M, and everyone will agree the later D7E's were wonderful tough machines with no weak links!! Yet the early D7F's that weighed nearly the same and had the same engine with the same horsepower and same transmission yet the every one claims the early D7F's had a very weak transmission and stay away from them!! Go figure! The fact is they started using the newer designed smaller lighter cheaper to build D6C transmissions in the D7F's. They came from the factory with a 24 volt direct electric starting system. BTW I have never herd of a D7F with a pony motor for a starting system.

You will burn 5-6 gallons of fuel per hour if your working it steady. 1 Anybody have any source info on specs on a d7e serial number 48a479 I need to know if its the 160hp or 180 hp and what the weight is, the year it was made, I am having trouble finding any info on the net. they are also very reliable and low maintenance. The 3306 cat engines were used in many application and are as bullet proof as any engine ever built. I put several thousand hours on a D7F and found it to be one of the most reliably tractors we have ever owned and we have owned over 100 or so!! I would'nt hesitate one bit buying one that was in good shape to do land clearing on the farm. Will I be able to dig down decent for burying rock piles or will I be having to make a long trench to get a big enough hole? I will be going to look at it on the weekend and hopefully be able to run it and get some pictures and more information. What sort of things should I be looking for on this series of machine and are there any real problem areas that I should watch for? My plan is to clear some brush and burry rock piles with it as well as cut down some high ridges and push the dirt into the low spots beside them. The Cat® D7 dozer delivers more productivity and high drive undercarriage value. She said he used it for about a week to clean up an old yard site and that was all. It was bought at an auction 3 years ago and the owner has since passed away so his daughter is selling it now.

The under carriage im told is about 60% and total hours are unknown. It has a semi u blade and 3 shank ripper. I don't have a lot of information on this machine as of yet but I do know it has the 6 cylinder engine and is a 1977. I have read some information on them and got conflicting opinions as to the reliability of these machines. Im considering buying a D7F dozer to do some work around the farm and would like to know what im getting into before going any further with it.
