Was the HD4 a decent mid size dozer?

For lighter work or home use , small jobs it is a good machine , it does have it's limits though . It was made as a industrial machine just in the size for easy transport or small job work .
It's not a machine for heavy construction work or ripping out big trees or moving heavy loads . Landscape work, light grading, and use around farm or job sites to clean up or dress down a area after heavy work is done is where it excels

Problem now is finding replacement parts as it was built in limited numbers and now there are not that many left either running or for parts , MinnPar in Mpls was parts supplier for machine under the old AC network of dealer / suppliers for industrial lines of small loaders, fork trucks and the HD4 lines
