Thank you, i'll see what they have to say! Send me a PM with your email address and I'll email you the quote. All of the 350's rails are the same except for the number of links. The single grouser pads are a four bolt pad instead of the two bolt pads which have not been made for many, many, many ye...

I got it from empire tractor parts out of NY.

For that kind of money you should scrap what you have and do a 350 upgrade. Price everything out for a straight 350, you may have to remove a link. I got pricing for under 3800.00 for new sprocket rims, pads, chain, nuts and bolts a few months ago.

I can't comment an wear since the tracks are off and not under tension to be able to do a pin to pin measurement. I can get pictures if you would like, but it's about 45 minutes away from where I currently live, so please tell me specifically what and how you want me to photograph the tracks so tha...

What is the condition of the track pads and chains? Do you have an available photo?

Thanks Paul!

Thanks Gil, I'm curious to see where the vent is located. I'll take a look at my parts book, if I can remember where I put it!!!

Hi, Come to think on it, my 1950 M does not have the gas tank vent line, but a vented cap....which dribbles gas out the top if I overfill it and it expands faster than I burn it..... Stan Yes Stan, the gas dripping out of the cap sounds familiar. I have learned to only put two or three gallons in t...

Andrew, I sent you a personal message with all of the bearing numbers you needed.

Early 420 will not have a vent line. It is possible you have a non vented cap installed. Lavoy That makes sense lavoy, I have a 56, 420. And I am 99.9% positive there is no vent line. My gas cap does hiss from time to time to release the tank pressure. So traber1 you must not have a vented cap inst...

Hi, No pressure on those. There is a vent line which heads downwards as it also acts as an overflow line. Yours is plugged. Probably by a mud dauber wasp nest. Stan Edit: Or, bent plugged. I have seen that, too. Stan I never noticed this vent line on a 420 gas tank. Where is this vent line located?...

Andrew, I just completely rebuilt my 8a including the bearings/seals in the mounting plate and the controller last winter. I made a list of all of the new bearings, seals, and places I got work done on the winch. I can't seem to find it at the moment, I know I sent a email to paul buhler with all of...

I think the first "factory" winch was for the 40 - 3 roller if I remember correctly. Which was the next model after the mc.
