    Caterpillar 430D Backhoe AC questions.

    I just bought this Cat 430D. It's had a repaint and redecal done to it. It's only got 3000 hrs on it and it's a pretty tight machine. The AC wasn't working when I got it and neither was the emergency brake. Everything else is good. I found the AC problem...The condenser was rotted and leaking on...

    Can anyone give me an idea of what year this is?

    Well, I work for the county here, they probably wouldn't take too kindly if I took their truck to Tenn, to pick my loader up , haul it to NC and then return to FLA.

    Can anyone give me an idea of what year this is?

    I guess you don't haul equipment. this machine is just over 20,000 lbs. Light load. I haul equipment all over florida, heavy equipment. 40,000, 45,000 lb machines. If they are secured properly you can do the speed limit, over if it's safe to do so. There is absolutely NO reason why it should...

    Can anyone give me an idea of what year this is?

    Can anyone give me an idea of what year this is?

    yeah, the auction said they couldn't find a serial #, but your right, it has to be there somewhere. I'm trying to find a trucker tp pick it up in Lebanon Tenn, and bring it to NC. Anybody know someone that would do that reasonably. It's a 300 mile trip, one guy said $3400, he's nuts.

    I just bought this CAT 955 at an auction for $2500. It runs, moves, and operates. If it pushes a little bit of dirt , then so be it. If it don't, then I'll scrap it for more then I give for it.

    Installing AC on a Case 9010B

    My Case 9010B has Heat but no AC. I would like to put AC in it and called Case to see about getting it installed. The service manager told me that there is a kit they can install that looks and operates just like it came from the factory. All the brackets, under the seat evaporator, condenser...
