For the pair, installed.

Jim is correct. You have an "open center" hyd system which means the oil is always circulating at volume, but no pressure other than inherent loss to friction inside of lines and hoses. No pressure is developed until a valve is pulled, and even then, the bypass is not open unless the pressure called...

Roughly $1850 installed.

Big difference between tracks being shot and needing pins and bushings. Pins and bushings are a wear item, and designed to be replaced. I have pins and bushings in stock, and a track press, so that is not a big deal, done 2 sets of tracks in the last month, 2 more to do. If you want to use it at all...

I would say that the likelihood of a piece of crud jamming the relief open is virtually impossible. They check ball is like a small marble, when the system is bypassing, the flow past the ball would mean a quite large gap, so no small piece of anything is going to do that. There is another problem, ...

To do what you are suggesting, you would pretty much have to buy a crawler with a complete installed toll carrier, lift cylinders, and associated components. Tool carriers with a dozer blade attachment are not the most rugged blade, and are prone to breakage if abused.

Got them, replied to your email.

As long as crossbar clamps are tight, and the dozer mounting clamps are tight, should not have caused any damage. Not having the correct tapered nuts or something else in the sideframe where it mounts to the cutch housings is what I have seen the most.

Yes, you can weld them, but I would put bolts in all of the rivet holes, and then just use a couple short stitches to prevent movement.

1/8" is considered 100% worn, so tracks are shot. Sprockets are easier to deal with, they seem more readily available than track groups. If it is a dozer crawler with grouser pads, I have a set of new takeoff tracks and pads. It should be a reverser crawler, no clutch, you are correct. Me personally...

Roller shot, bearings out of the final drive, or someone has replaced the tapered nuts in the side frames with regular nuts, and it has pounded the holes out and allowed the track frame to come back. Regardless, moving the roller is not the answer if there is a much more severe problem causing it, o...
