16b pictures

OK guys, Talked to hd16b Doug, got lots and lots of pictures to post from him but don't think we can use all of them right now. So I'll start with the HD16B (we like it)


Ok, so we still like the brush rake attachment. Might work good on one of our 11Bs for fire fighting.  So I hope Doug will chime in and explain these pictures of gauges on the screens, could be permanent test modes? or what (we just leave them floppin around on the floor)
The tachometer could be useful too?

So stay tuned because we have pictures of his fathers HD11EP LGP crawler  (yes that's what I said, LGP )

thanks acmel for posting the pictures. the 16b,serial number 19s14072 is a 1975 model which happens to be the year I was born and ironcily I bought it in 2008 very soon after my little girl was born. As for the gauges I just decided to leave them up there after I went through the transmission and they work real good at only a glance I can monitor clucth apply,converter/lube,and modulating clutch pressures. also on the reverse speeds I have a rotating light that comes on, hence the senders and wires.

Great pics boys, shes a credit to you Doug. Your lucky to have a tidy, late tractor like that for a 'young fella'.
I got a HD6ep from the very first year of production that was made when I was drinking mums'home brew' so her and me are almost the same age; but neither of us are anywhere near as tidy as yours !
Thanks for sharing; cheers from the bottom of the world

"It was not easy figuring out the drive because the accessory drive is 1.5 crank speed and turns ccw which is backwards for most tachs but I finally got it.Iam glad I put it on because I soon found out the previous owner had turned the rpms way up " Doug, did you make sure the tach is figured out correctly? Like actually check the true engine speed to what your 'Doug rigged' tach says?... Not trying to pick on you but I have reread your comment above several times and I keep thinking fellows turn up the smoke screw, but few turn up the rev screws. (except pullers, and we won't talk about that..LOL) Your a pusher here. LOL

Here are pictures of hd16b's HD11 EP LGP dozer. Doug says they have trouble changing the hydraulic filter in the front because the tracks are so long.

It's a 44 link track assembly with the longer swing frame?

Doug, ok fill us in here. Who done this? how wide are these pads? Do you know any history of where it was used?

OK let's see,hd11ep serial number 13204,68model,my father bought it in about 1977 when everyone was and could clear land. It came off a big farm sale. The farmer had about 25 caterpillars and this one ac.I think that my father wanted to maybe buy one of the cats,but he said they looked totally wore out and still bought 20 to25k. The hd11 was the last machine sold and he ending up paying 11000 for it. As for the long uc, I believe it was an option because it is in the parts book calling it the special 44 link chain.besides that they cut and widened the c frame and added an exemption for the truion. When he bought it it had 36 inch pads and replaced them with30 ,which is what it has now. I have seen many like this around here.

Great job on the 16-B    I really like the decals & Allis Chalmers logo. I was going to ask what year it was but I noticed in an earlier post it's a 1975. My 16-B is a 1974 model so they are pretty close in age. Yeah... It's a dang shame a fella cant run down to the Allis dealer to pick up new parts today. To be honest it's my favorite dozer to operate .

Some of the pad bolt just won't stay tight

sounds like a very useful tip Ian. I`ll try to find some suitably sized tube scrappers have not plundered and give it a go

You can use brass also. I use my brass punches often doing the same kind of thing

I HAVE AN 11F SERIAL#5474 IT ALSO HAS 8 ROLLERS WITH 201N PADS. THE CROSS BEAM IS SOLID ON BOTH SIDES OF TRACTOR. I BELEAVE IN PAST LIFE IT WAS A PIPE LAYER. ANY IDEAS WEATHER I SHOULD LOOSEN OR LEAVE AS IS.
