JDcrawlers Messageboard

I just bought a set of tracks off from a 420 4 roller on ebay and noticed that they have 4 bolts per pad and the original ones on the machine had only 2 bolts per pad. were some made with 4 bolts? will they fit my 420? THANKS PAUL

THANKS LAVOY ,BY THE WAY, A WHILE AGO YOU TOLD ME HOW TO ADJUST THE STEERING CLUTCHES ON AN MC. I HEATED UP A 1/2 '' WRENCH ,BENT IT AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT. AFTER A FEW TRIES I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO STEER GREAT THANK YOU FOR THE ADVICE. PAUL

I am in need of a decent grille, left side foot pan (rest). For an MC crawler .Not for show ,just decent. Also when I push the clutch in, the brake pedal on the right side also goes down. I amassuming that they should be independant. Is the brake just frozen on the shaft? Thanks in advance. Paul
