TRACKS FOR SALE OR TRADE
I HAVE A SET OF TRACKS FOR A 1010 THEY ARE ABOUT 60%. THEY HAVE 4 BOLT PADS AND ARE SNOW SHOES I THINK THEY ARE 14" WIDE. I ALSO HAVE A INTEGRAL TOOL CARRIER FOR AN MC SOMEONE HAS TURNED IT ARROUND AND MADE A BLADE FOR THE FRONT OF A 420. ALL NESSARY PARTS TO MAKE IT WORK ARE THERE.
Hi Ed-
When you say 60% on the tracks, do you mean primarily pin and bushing wear or is it more rail height and pad wear?

Does anyone know if the rails and pins/bushings are the same between the 1010 and early 2010s? Also did factory 1010 rails take 4-bolt pads like the 2010 did? I have a 2010 parts book but not a 1010 parts book. Thanks in advance.

Do you think you can post some pictures or e-mail them to me with closeups of the pads and rails and undersides of the pins/bushings? I can provide e-mail address if you can't post them.
Thanks

Hi,
The snow shoes are the ones with the holes in the center so that the sprocket teeth can push the packed snow out of the inner section of the rails. Snow has this tendency to build up in there, and if it stays put the rails will climb away from the sprockets, overtightening the rails.
Also, the snow pads have slightly different grousers. They're made such that half of the pads have the center 1/3 of their grouser height higher than the outer 2/3 on alternate pads. The alternate ones have the outer 2/3 higher than the center 1/3. It's hard to describe, but I don't happen to have any pix of good snow pads. I have them on my 420c, but they're worn enough that the grousers all look the same now.
The idea of the alternating grouser height is that they'll crack through ice and grip the ground better than the standard grousers. I can testify that in practice they don't always do that!
In fact, after a particularly memorable slide slide on the ice under the snow, Dad added a set of ice caulks to the tracks. These are like large snow tire studs that replace the hex head pad bolts and act just like tire studs do on the ice. He only had enough to do one set of rails, so he opted to only replace one of the hex bolts with a caulk on each pad. That way we have half a set of caulks on both sides. They really did the job, too.
