    Yep that be just like the one I hauled. I got the ripper, blade and arms then the 9 axle went and picked up the machine itself.

    @cnsper, I just HAD to throw that pic in. There was a discussion about a year ago about these HD41s on Views of the past. In this pic, I had just unloaded a blade, rippers & cab from a D-10, the machine was on its way via Homer Mann out of LA. The track cleats on this girl measured 6", blade was 22' wide & had a 16V-71, 2 v-8s in line.

    yessir she was noisy rattled you to death and and God forbid you had to rip rock with it you'd be soar for a month but one thing I can't deny she was a reliable SOB that's for sure started right up every time... One other thing that was nice was you never had to worry about mosquitos if you ran that thing. When ever you throttled it up I swear a prius would die somewhere in the world haha

    First of 2 excavators moved today. The other one was a 240 Hitachi but I did not get a pic of that one. Got directions into the site, no problem, the road loops around. Ahhh except for the weight limit bridge and no place to turn around. 3/4 of a mile back down the road and back out onto the main highway, I'm gone! I HATE residential areas that are too small to get a truck around the corners. Dirt roads, 4' deep ditches and wet ground are a NO! I'm not going up that road.. Walk it in.... LOL
