Thanks for all the info guys. I think I am going to just try and do the tilt, and leave the angle pART manual for strength issues..........I will ley you know how it goes

Yes, mine is the 6410 (I think) it has the all manual adjustments. Yea, I would be tickled with just the tilt feature to be hydro adjust, since I have 1 extra spool, and I hate to spend another $2500 on it.....LOL. I will see if I can find a parts number book somewhere to check. If someone has a few...

I have a 450c with the blade frame on the outside of the tracks. It has a manual blade. My question is has anyone took this frame and made it a hydrallic adjust 6 way blade? If so what did you modify? My dozer has a unused aux valve on it.
Thanks

jsal, you should post some pics too so I can see what I am doing wrong!!!!LOL

While I have got my 450c tore down (track install) I am going to put a fresh coat of paint. My question is they have 2 Deere construction yellows. Old and new. My 450c is a 1979 model. What is the correct color? I have seen lots of different yellows today, I don't really like the ones with a lot of ...

Well the tracks/pads and other stuff came today. All the parts look of good quality, I will update (and maybe a few photos) of the install. Think I am going to put a fresh coat of paint on the old girl while I have the tracks off

I have been shopping around the past 2 days, and the best quote I have is $4457 to my door for 2 sprockets, 2 front idlers, 2 track chains with 16" pads, and top rollers with seals. That was from North American track. I think I am going to order the parts from them Monday morning, (before my account...

That's about what my mechanic told me. I picked the machine up fairly cheap ($4000), and it runs good, trans hydraulics all good. Repacking cylinders now. The undercarriage was why I picked it up for that price. Is there any aftermarket places that you guys buy from? Local deere dealer wants around ...

I am new to the crawler world, and have recently purchased a 450C. (Will post some photos tomorrow) I am in the process of fixing a few smaller problems now. I am going to have to redo the under carriage before long though. I wanted to get the chains with new pads, and rails. Where is the best place...

Well guys I went over there again today. I am the owner of a 450C now....LOL For the money I figured I couldn't go wrong. I will post some pics so you can tell me what you think.

Thanks for the info. I think I am going to buy it today. It will be fun to play around with

Hi Guys Sorry it took so long to get back, been busy at work. I got the serial number. 450CD 317211T. What can you guys tell from that? I have ran the dozer a little. Runs great, and trans works great. The only things I see is that the Blade cylinders needs to be repacked (leaks down), and the bushi...

Thanks for the replys guys!! I will get the serial # tomorrow and post it. I will also try to snap a few pics. It is a friend of mine dozer that is finished with it, he said that the engine, and trans is solid, Just the tracks are tired. That's why the cheap price. the rest of the machine seems soli...

Oh, and it has a JD winch on the back that works too.

I have found a 450C JD dozer. Runs good trans works good. Dozer looks pretty good. Had my mechanic check it out, he said the tracks were wore (around approx. 30% left). I have a farm, and I am going to use it to spread a little dirt, and maybe push a few paths. (not going to make a living with it). ...
