While looking at an HD6 I checked the final drive oil finding it empty. The owner did not know to check the oil and didn't. I think the final drives and steering clutches are the most difficult repairs so that is what I check first. Try to get a 1964 or newer.

A D4 D would be a comparable Cat dozer.
