New parts are going to be as scarce as the initial components were. They will leak, and new seals won't fix them because shafts are scored. The second challenge is the holder of them knowing how much I want them will likely price them by gold standards. Finding those parts is the first challenge. I have no doubt there is a cadaver in a salvage yard somewhere in the nation with just the parts I need. The PTO apparatus is hard to come by for a Dresser. They use a constant running PTO to drive an integral pump, then a hydraulic motor to turn a worm drive. The OEM winches on these tractors are hydraulic. I envision backing to the tree after it has been felled, and winching one end off the ground to drag. Perhaps I could meet my needs with an electric winch. I would like to indulge my dreams, and drag a few logs. Should I manage to stick the crawler in muck, I deserve a Darwin Award. The Power Wagon without power steering lacks the maneuverability of a crawler. I have an early Power Wagon with two PTO winches. I make no pretense that this is the cheap solution. I think an arrangement like the Farmi three point winches might be used. If I could work out the plumbing of interrupting the hydraulic return between the angle valve, and the tank, or a selector valve to repurpose the angle function, I could fabricate a mount,& arch with fairlead. I've explored the feasibility of a Warn, or other brand hydraulic winch.

I then wonder if I want a tractor model prone to broken transmission housings. He explained that many break the cast iron transmission housing. The 450, 450B, and 450C were a particularly rich source of winches. One man explained that most buyers of old crawlers are reluctant to pay $3000 extra to get a tractor with winch, so he often has winches to sell. A number of people here part out Deere crawlers. Here in VT the John Deere logging tractors are plentiful. For my tractor at least, these parts used are like chicken teeth. Looking at the parts book, there are about a hundred little and big parts needed to adapt a winch to a specific tractor. What isn't easy to find is the PTO, and mounting parts. I bought a Dresser TD7G, a 70HP, 14600 LB all angle blade in condition that pleased me.

Small dozers with winches are tired by the time I can afford them. Dozers first bought new as logging machines live a hard life.
