i like it. thanks for the pics, i have never seen a hd5 with a cable blade. i have one that needs the same repair because no oil got to the outboard bearing and ate the shaft. hope to start on it soon. good luck with that awesome piece of iron ------------- HD5B, HD5G, (2) FARMALL A's, CUB.

Watch that upper outboard bearing also , for when that one fails it breaks the rear housing . Seem about 5 machines like that so far that i have looked at.
Excapt for having soomething uneque in cable dozer I sure would have a set of hyd cyl on it for the blade . ------------- Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light.

Had a 5B with a 9' blade and over track lift cylinders , madea frame in front similar to your cable front and put 2 - 3" X 34" cylinders on it , used front pump and mounted hyd tank ahead of rt side battery box with hyd control valve off that to easy hand reach.
On those rear axles , 2 styles one with small spline and other with large spline , also earl ones were rifle drilled to oil outboard bearing. Anothe rplace to be sure you are getting oil or change over to grease is the steering clutch lever bearings as they are oiled off rear housing through a felt wick. Another felt wick on the pilot bearing on end of crank on the 2-71. ------------- Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light. Faith is not guessing; it is knowing something.
