Sorry for another dozer related post but… does a JD 450B have a reverser as opposed to just a manual clutch?
low

Im looking at purchasing an old model but in decent shape, John Deere 450B dozer (I believe made between 1970-1972). The seller says it runs fine and undercarriage appears to be in decent shape, he said that it just needs a transmission pump. If its just a transmission issue Im not afraid of it but a reverser replacement is quite the costly and big job Ive been told. Seller says its manual clutch and that it does not have a reverser, however, a guy I know who works on dozers says it does… looking for an answer. I have a couple pictures from the seller if it would help someone. Thanks.
