Got the 7G out the last few days, cut sod out for a drive extension and to widen a section moving the spoil to the house for landscaping fill. Spent a good part of yesterday filling and dumping loads from a old C70 5 yard dump truck from a spoil pile five years sitting since our first road push in
17 full loads in all and all set around the house for good fill for the yard, quite likely had more like seven yards a load, heaped. And today it snowed, just a royal mud mess so I am stuck in the house.

Happy to know your HD7G is outside and working. I wish my HD7G would move. I have a project for my HD6G but it is too wet here.

Morning Dozer, I am going to sit down with the old trans this year and rebuild it, still have issues with the donor unit wanting to slip in F Hi and sluggish until I cycle it forward/reverse a few hundred feet. I know the Eaton/Cessna feed hydraulic pump on the converter is weak so I will try to locate a replacement or have a local hydraulics rebuild it, then I need to reconfigure the suction hose to it from the left hand sump as it still sucks a little air from it. Lots of small issues to the old machine but still works good enough.
