[QUOTE="jerrymack553, post: 46493, member: 5470"] for a unit on fire it dosent look to bad cosmetically.i would try to get the engine to turn over with a rachet or bar. get it apart and have an engine machinist look at the parts they usually can tell if its worth rebuilding it looks like a ford diesel i could be wrong though. I rebuilt a cat 3406b that was all burned up like yours it was intresting how many gremlins i found but its running now, anyway. i would be looking for a hydraulic shop that could test the pumps they probably will all need seals. wiring harness start calling equipment salvage yards to see if they have any of the 550's series and strip the harness and all of the electrical compents off of it including up in the dash area some of used electrical suff may not be any good either but its easier to track electrical problems with a complete electrical system. hoses do the same find them on a salvaged machine and have the missing ones made. i wouldn't recommend reusing the hose from the fire small pieces of hose debri could come loose and get inyo the pumps once it's up and running agin. if the fuel cell is melted replace it with a good used one or buy a new on same on all the fuel lines replace with new i seen your hyd filter bases are rusted up pretti good you could glass bead them and may be able to reuse them. pull the plates plugs on the chain cases and clean them out try to get all of the old hydro fluid out it'll help elimnate hydro issues. hope something here helped i been down this road.
