Alright guys, i'm new to the site but been around heavy equipment my entire life. and been slowly building my very own empire of dirt movers for some time. I've been looking at getting into a D4 or D5 size machine with a winch and an angle blade. i love Caterpillar but can never seem to find one set up the way i want for anywhere near the price i like. Any way i stumbled across a Komatsu D41a-3 with a hyster winch that was in great shape had new undercarriage and recent overhaul and ended up getting it for what i believe was a pretty decent deal. I realize this is a gray market machine and there doesnt seem to be an abundance of them in the US but i was wondering peoples thoughts and or experiences on them. if anyone had any links to a service manual or parts manual that would be FANTASTIC. and any leads to some good aftermarket parts places would be GREAT. i need to repack all the angle and lift cylinders currently...... Also id love to see some other peoples D41a's or similar size machines!
Appreciate any feedback!!
