They used to, but they are obsolete now. On occasion you will see one on Ebay, but it has been years since I saw one.

Does anyone have a photo of the track gauges? I am curious what they look like.

The laser cut is the easy part, it is all the inscriptions and measurements that are on both sides. It could be laser engraved, but would take a lot of time.

Hello all, I am getting very close to finally 're-producing these track wear gauges. There will be two gauges, one is to be used on the 40's 4 roller,420,430,440,1010,2010-serial 42,000. The other gauge will be for the 2010's after 42,001 and 350's. The track wear gauge measures the grouser height, pin to pin wear, support idler wear, roller radius and wear between the flanges, front idler radius, minimum track sag, drive sprocket wear, and link wear. Most of these measurements are compared to the new part, so you would compare this to your profiles. The question I have is how many of you would be interested in either of the gauges for somewhere around 30.00 to 35.00 each, shipping is included. I need to get one more quote in before I can set the final price.
