Thanks Lavoy!

I need to know the recomended oil to replace the reverser oil in a 440 ICD, can someone help? Thanks Sam

Glad you didn't get hurt in this incident! Looks like it could have been bad. Be careful, we need you! Sam

Lavoy, Got the shaft in the mail Thursday but haven't had time to put it in. I hope to get it in soon! Did you get the dozer cleaned up from the rollover in the mud? I hope it wasn't as bad as it sounded! have you posted any pictures? Thanks Sam

Thanks Lavoy, Will call you!

Thanks Lavoy, yes it is the clutch shaft to the reverser. The shaft is aprox. 20 1/2 inches long, 1 3/8 inch diam. with 10 splines, and the reverser end is aprox. 1 3/16 inches with 16 splines. Please let me know if you have one available and the price including shipping. Sam

Is it possible that the clutch shaft slid forward and disengaged the reverser? When I was replacing engine, the shaft came out wit...

Did not start engine as I have the clutch pedal off to get the cover off the reverser. Turned the pto shaft with pipe wrench...

Thanks for the encouragement, Paul! Your father was a wise one I feel and I appreciate you passing that wisdom along to me because I tend to be a little impatient! Will try to use advice I'm recieving here to my advantage and get this old dozer back going. I really feel blessed to have been steered ...

Chuck, thanks for your reply. Read it over several times last night and will check this out when it warms up some today.
