C-Frame Components That Hold Up Under Pressure

Written by Hannah on . Posted in Uncategorized.

At the heart of every dozer blade is a C-frame built to take the hit and keep the job moving. This crucial structure connects the blade to the main body of the machine, allowing for controlled pushing, grading, and clearing. Because it endures constant stress, its components, such as pins, bushings, cylinders, and trunnion parts, are particularly prone to wear over time.

At Paint Valley Equipment, we supply the high-quality C-frame replacement parts you need to keep your equipment running strong. From pins and bushings to hydraulic cylinders and trunnion components, our parts are built for durability, designed for exact fitment, and backed by over 35 years of manufacturing expertise.

  • Case: 450, 550, 650, 750, 850, 1150, 1450, 1550 models
  • John Deere: 450, 550, 650, 700, 750, 850 models
  • Dresser: TD7 & TD8 models
