Hi, This dozer has 4950 hrs on it, and while it will still move, it will not move under load either forward or backward. Motor will bog ever so slightly but will not stall. And it takes nothing more than a stick to make it stop moving completely. I have checked that the driveshaft is still turning while in gear and the machine not moving. It still turns left/right ok.
We had just changed the trans fluid on it and filter about 100hrs ago. To be safe though we drained it and pulled the strainer and changed the $100 filter on it again to no avail..same thing. It just seems odd that we parked it, and the next morning no power.
Iam thinking it may need a new pump but this thing is 3k from komatsu so I wanted to make sure I eliminated everything else first. Was hoping maybe someone on here might have some ideas. This dozer has the cummins engine and runs great.
Thanks ahead of time to anyone that might have some advice.

Forgot to mention the blade works great with no issues and will lift the machine up with no problems.
