We are leaving in the morning to cut/break/bend/jump and pry the tracks off of that 2010. For a practice exersize, we took the bad track off of my 1010 today.... Then loaded all of those tools into the truck for tomorrows adventure! If there are any easy to get at parts anyone needs, let me know by ...

Thanks for the guestimate weight Levoy... he wants $900 for it so that would be fair if scrap is $265 a ton right now. He wants $350 for the tracks, and i gota cut um off myself. Any idea what the weight would be on just tracks? I imagine they are less than a thousand pounds each. It would easier to...

2010 weight estimate ( No engine)
Howdy folks... I am considering buying a parts machine thats 280 miles away... but am stuck on what it might weigh. It's a 2010C, missing the diesel engine and a few other parts. I have read on here that most people say the machine is about 6.5ton, or 12,500lb. Would it be fair to say the engine is ...

I actually used the machine a bunch even though it goes straight back and forth only( sometimes I can move it gradually for a slight turn or adjustment) I drop dirt or stumps or such in front of it with the loader and then push it straight out to the swamp and back. The loader sure sucks for dozing ...

Oh my. Thanks for the news everyone. I do not have a garage/pole barn that I can do this sort of job in. My house and garage is in town, but I wouldn't be allowed to drive the dozer around my tar driveway here. I'd hate to tear this machine down out in the dirt driveway at the property it lives at. ...

Lavoy, are these adjusters replaceable?... If so do you know where can I order them from.? Maybe I can bend it back straight while in place, but that might not be the best thing to do. I wonder why one is different than the one on the other side. Could it be that one adjuster has been replaced from ...

Yes, if I pull either lever back, the crawler will still move forward and push hard. The only way I can "steer" the machine into position is to hold back a steering lever, and release the clutch. I can get the machine to move only an inch or two each time I release the clutch that way... but its the...

1010 steering and clutch questions
Oh I'm sure you guys seen this topic a hundred times, but this one might be different. My 1010 is no longer steering to the right or to the left. It drives back and forth very nicely, and can spin both tracks if pushing a hard mound. I studied over the brake/clutch adjustment in the tech manual, and...

I have the same problem on my 1010. The threads are rusted away and the nut doesnt turn without slipping. I replaced the nut (have to take out the adjuster) and wire brushed the rust out of what was left of the threads. That let me at least adjust the track a bit. Then I cut a peice of angle iron ex...
