After a lot of persistence, patience, and advice from you all and others, I was finally able to get the engine unseized. After letting the cylinders soak in ATF for a couple of weeks with no success, I finally picked up some Butyl Celusolve from the CAT dealer in town. I let that
soak for about three days and then I did something that I hadn't done before. An "old" mechanic friend recommended I pull the starter and try to make rotation there. So I did this and didn't get any movement turning it clockwise, but put a bunch of torque on it counterclockwise and it started to move, more and more everytime I rotated it through. Prior to doing this, I jacked up one side and had a big 4 x 4 timber shoved in the wheel to torque on. So I don't know what combination of events contributed to the success, but the important part is it is "UNSTUCK"! Thank you to everyone who helped me on this project- you saved me alot of money, I think. Until my next blunder........
