I'm looking for some advice on rebuilding/replacing the track chains on the crawler. The adjusters are right at their maximum extension so I need to something before I do real work with the machine.
I've been scouring the usual "old tractor" sources for rebuilt/less worn chains without much luck. Any one know where I might get pins and bushings pressed out/in in the northwest (Oregon/Washington/Idaho)?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
AFAIK, those pins and bushings are no longer available.

Pins and bushings are available, but currently at low stock. Usually they restock within a month or two.
