I bought a dozer 3 days ago, ran it for 3 days, now look! Didn't take me long, I bought it b/c I kept getting my big Ford 5000 in the same situation!! I have no clue how I can get it out either!

I stuck a cat d6 just like that on the ranch in oregon. We got the forestry dept to bring there d10 down and pull it out. Maybe a big rig tow truck would be strong enough, but it aint gunna be cheap!
 
Yep, like 71mtnscout said..

You need to find someone with a d10 or similiar to pull it out.

Definitely not cheap...

I guess you could try the manual labor way (probably stick a backhoe if you tried to use one), and dig out the treads on one side (front or rear) and get a couple 4 x 12 by 20 feet and stick them under -- maybe the treads would catch and you could get it out.

Think you should have stopped a little sooner when it started going down instead of forward...
 
Well you May have intimate relations with this ole girl by the time you are done. :yikes:

a tracked bobcat is about 200/day and has a lighter foot print. Lay down some sheets of 3/4 plyweed to support you if you can get a skid steer version.

I've got a t300 bobcat with tracks that I'm going to take about 10 railroad ties back there and see if I can pick it up with the dozer blade and put the cross ties under the track, that's the only thing I can do other than that, I actually thought about buying an excavator!! I have a tractor to pull out the truck, I have a bobcat to pull out the tractor, I have a dozer to pull out the bobcat, so it just makes sense to get an excavator to pull out the dozer!! I'm just going to have to shovel a lot and hope for the best!
 
Once the sod breaks open it don't take long to sink. If you wait a day, it should dry up a bit and you might be able to get it out. Good plan on the rail road ties to keep the bobcat out of the new pit.
 
I got a d6 stuck once just about the same depth. I got some 6" pipe and stuck it in behind the tracks and backed up. It slipped a few times before it grabbed then it came out. It bent the hell out of the pipe but I was unstuck.

You got the best thing, the crossties will work. You will have put them under the blade and then lift the front of the dozer up then put a couple of ties under the tracks or in front. It should come on out.
 
Well, the cross ties worked a little, I think I didn't get one good enough under the opposite side! I have two ties left, I guess I'm going to try again tomorrow!

I wonder what else I can get stuck back there! Now I absolutely refuse to take the bobcat back, it's just not worth the headache!
 
Holy crap!!!!!!!!!

Man it looks like you are trying to swap the ends of the dozer. From the bottom to the top.:lol:


but really it looks like you just need to get the cross ties under it a little more even. (I am sure you know this). It should come out then.
 
I guess I'm renting an excavator for 2k for a week, hopefully that will dig it out and I'll go ahead and dig out my pond and stumps!
 
Looks like you have your pond half dug out -- if you want it in that spot:skep:

maybe you need to put a post-it on your fridge not to go into that area until May when it has dried out a little:cornut:

glad you got the jd out -- the Ford, also?
 
I tried the 4 wheeler first, with a snatch block of course!!! It didn't work, so I just chained the blade to a really big stump and picked up the blade all the way and it forced the rear end to come up, then I just put it in gear and walked it out!! Unfortunately the Ford is still stuck, but I have gotten so good at pulling the tractor out with just a chain and a stump that I can get it out this weekend in about 5 mintues!! Now I need to take the Scout back there and test out my tsl's in some gumbo mud!!!
