I would not have the drums, I didn't think the C model drums even wore that much. I have some stuff on hand, small matter to get the rest. Shoot me an e-mail, I will see what I can come up with this week. I am short on time this week, and out of town the following week, but will find out what I can.
Thanks,
Lavoy

I didnt think they wore much either, until I took this thing apart. Im guessing that it had some nasty contaminants in the trans oil, or got run low on oil for a while. Ill send you an e-mail with all the part numbers

Thanks

Update

Post by CatD8RII » Wed Jan 14, 2015 9:50 pm

Hello again JDcrawlers! Figured I'd post the end results of the dozer on its original thread. Many thanks to Lavoy for parts and hosting this site, and to the members, past and present that have offered help and motivation. Many more thanks to my Dad, without his welding and fabrication skill this machine would never have seen daylight again! Just goes to show, if you really want to, you can darn near bring one back from the dead! Just wanted to show some brief highlights of what was done. I have many more pics, but don't need to make an 100 page post! This machine was a rear and bottom of a 350C, that someone stuck a 350 engine and reverser into, with some added "extras" throughout! I also am working on rebuilding a 3315 for the back, will post pics once its done and mounted.

Wow! Congrats on a job well done. I'd say that you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer 350C.

Very nicely done but maybe not quite perfect. I have a somewhat depreciated dozer I would be willing to trade straight across if you would like to try again.

Hi,

No, no, no. He wants to trade the 350 dozer to my for my all-original 420c! :P

I will even let him keep that also nicely done winch since mine does not have one for an even trade....

Wow! That is a nice restoration. I missed it in 2011, but what a great job! It sure is nice to see a machine all broken down and so well documented. Makes it a lot easier to see how everything fits together.

I have a 3310 winch to rebuild, not sure the differences between the 3310 and 3315 but it's nice to see the innards of yours.

Good work!

Looks to me like a one man 350 Relife Program.

Many thanks for the kind comments.

Sorry Stan we already have 1 420 crawler project to do, then a utility that needs work so thats enough 420s for now :lol:
The 3310 and 3315 are similar with the exception of the control setup. They are both built like a tank. The 3315 has it's own oil pump and control for the clutch and brake, whereas the 3310 has a manual kind of booster arrangement. Most of the guts are the same, but the brake cylinder and the clutch piston itself are different.

I saw a pair of John Deeres here, yesterday doing some grading on a lot off of Bessemer Street where they had stockpiled materials for the North Street rebuild project.
Yours reminded me of them.
Nice Job.

350C Final Drive

Post by sattlerfarm » Thu Nov 05, 2015 1:53 pm

You have some great ,pictures of your 350C. I have a leak around the axle seal on mine, and was wondering if you had any detailed pictures of that area.
I have read that you can remove the axel without removing the final drive housing. Remove the pan from the bottom of the housing then remove the castle nut from the axle. Then pull the axle out after the sprocket and track has been removed. I don't think this will work on the "C" model. I'm pretty sure the castle nut is not exposed by this procedure. On the earlier 350's there was a cover plate on the inside of the final housing that would expose the castle nut. Would appreciate any of your fine photographic evidence. My email is sattlerfarm@msn.com or post it on the forum if you care to. Thanks, Martin
