Runs sweet

I think it's a 350. They're good machines.
-
That machine for how old it is it's awesome man seems to run great to

Hi does any one know the total weight of this? with the backhoe and loader?
-
dude this fucking thing is EXACTLY what I need. I didn't know you could get them with a backhoe too!
-
Nice channel brother!! You've got an absolute gem here...I'm a heavy equipment operator and can appreciate a nice piece of iron!

I grew up in GA and in the early 80s when I was a kid these were on every construction site around. I saw less and less track loaders at all till now seeing one is a rarity , and a 450 like this would be a really rare site.

I love John Deere! I want one!
-
love it- trying to decide on backhoe/loader . Only have five acres thick undrbrush with lots of bird planted saplings-- Now I know what i need . Thanks
-
You are a very lucky man! I would love to have a machine like that.

Take care of that machine and it'll be the ONLY one you'll ever need. I've operated one just like that a lot and they're very versatile. The hoe is detachable so if you need to just push you're not weighted down. Also the hoe digging is a lot easier that undercarriage wear. I always tried to do as much as I could with the hoe because all you';re wearing is pins and bushings and some diesel. They're sweet. The only one better is a 550 with a shuttle shift and a converter.

That's a great machine you've got there. It will do a lot of work. I think it's far more useful than a dozer even without the backhoe. I have a 450C loader and I love it, I wish I had a backhoe for it. FWIW your machine is not a 450C, pretty sure it's a 450B making it an early 70's I believe.

You've got yourself a really nice machine Sir. With the age of it, its going to have a few creaks, rattles and unwanted movement. Your idea with the chain and binder will probably work. My only suggestion is not to bind it to tight. But then again you know that. Other than spraying it off every once in awhile, keeping it greased and doing the required maintenance, I'd say you have a very nice machine.

Nice "Big Boys Toy" Happy days.

รถไถ

It's good to be a guy so I can get excited about things like this without having to feel guilty!! lol! She's a beauty!

i have 555a with back hoe this machine you have is slower than hoe but will do everything you need just keep grease in track adjuster so they dont rust up. you have a gem there and yes moves large piles very well
-

My neighbour farm had a John Deere crawler loader with backhoe, exactly like yours during the eighties and until 1996 when they sold it.
But it had a cab and was older and was a bit rusty, it was manufactured during the sixties or early seventies I guess. I live in south Sweden in Europe.
These machines are very rare in Sweden, that one is the only one I ever have seen in reality. I thought it was really cool.
My father did borrow it a couple of times. I remember he was not very impressed since he was used to Caterpillar 225.
The backhoe arrangement had significant backlash, the machine was slow and had low capacity.
