If you’re looking for the ultimate "Bulletproof" dozer, this is it. This 1988 Caterpillar D7G is a former military tractor, meaning it was maintained to the highest standards before undergoing a massive professional overhaul. This isn't just a used machine; it’s a mechanical powerhouse that has been stripped down and rebuilt for maximum longevity.
With a brand-new, direct-injected engine (1,400 hours), new torque converter, and new transmission, the entire powertrain is essentially refreshed. The direct-injection setup means better fuel efficiency and easier starts compared to older pre-cup designs. Finished with a professional sandblast and fresh coat of paint, this D7G is in immaculate, show-room condition and ready to go straight to your toughest job site—whether that’s heavy clearing, ripping, or ranch development.
Key Features • Powertrain Overhaul: New engine (1,400 hrs), new torque converter, and new transmission installed simultaneously. • Engine Type: Direct Injected (No pre-cups) for improved reliability and fuel economy. • Ex-Military Status: Heavy-duty frame and impeccable maintenance history. • Attachments: Multi-shank rear ripper for aggressive ground breaking. • Protection: Equipped with sweeps and a rear screen for operator safety in brush/logging environments. • Operator Station: Open ROPS (Roll-Over Protection System). • Aesthetics: Sandblasted and fresh paint; looks and runs like a much newer unit.
Technical Specifications & Value-Adds • Total Frame Hours: 6,000 (Very low for a 1980s CAT). • Horsepower: 200 Net HP (Powered by the legendary 3306 engine platform). • Operating Weight: Approximately 45,000 lbs • Transmission Type: 3-speed Planetary Power Shift. • Ground Clearance: 13.7 inches (Excellent for navigating rough terrain). • Fuel Capacity: 115 Gallons (Built for long, high-production shifts).
Can I review inspection photos and a condition report before I buy?
Yes. Listings include detailed photos and, when available, an inspection or condition summary so you can see wear, leaks, undercarriage, and cab condition. Ask your representative for the latest meter reading and any service records the seller can provide—hours and condition are often verified at listing time but can change.
Do you arrange shipping or delivery?
Shipping and logistics are often available nationwide through vetted transport partners. Cost depends on distance, dimensions, weight, and whether the machine is running and load-ready. Your sales representative can quote options and timing; pickup at the equipment location may also be arranged where allowed.
How accurate is the hour meter, and can I verify it?
Published hours reflect the last reported reading on the machine or in available documentation. Meters can be replaced or incorrect; we recommend confirming hours with your own inspection or a qualified technician before purchase. Ask whether an ECM or telematics readout is available for your unit.
Is the machine sold as-is, and is there a warranty?
Used heavy equipment is often sold as-is, where-is, unless a separate written warranty or service plan is offered on your specific deal. Remaining manufacturer or extended coverage, if any, may be transferable—confirm in writing. Always review the purchase agreement and inspection terms before committing.
What paperwork should I expect (title, lien release, export)?
Expect a bill of sale and any title or ownership documents required in your state or country. If the unit was financed, ensure lien release is documented. For export, additional customs, EPA, or certification paperwork may apply—your representative can flag what is needed for your destination.
