Somewhere I have a factory Deere undercarriage inspection manual. You would not believe how in depth it is as far as measuring undercarraige. After reading that manual years ago, I NEVER EVER believe ANY undercarriage percentage I read or am given. Unless I trained Deere mechanic did it, it is just figure that someone pulled out of their ass, period.
I will see if I can post the relevant pages sometime, but there are 6 how to pages alone, not inluding spec pages and such.

Lavoy,
I always wondered where those fictitious undercarriage percentages actually came from.
Based on their lack of any value or reality, where you stated makes sense.

Lavoy,
Those charts and 6 pages of how to instructions look about 100% to me.
I did not pull that from where sun never shines either.

Still looking for a bulldozer. It has turned into "mission impossible" as our area had a HUGE flood earlier this month. Said flood did $7,000,000 in damage to the roads in our township alone.
The field behind my house filled with water 10' deep at my back bank, was 1/2 mile wide, and was running at 20+ mph!. Wednesday the field was empty. Thrusday the field was full of water. Friday it was empty again! Amazing. We now have a double wide trailer in the field that floated down from a quarter mile away.
All the local contractors with construction equipment are doing work for the town at no charge. Ten wheeler dump trucks, excavators, bulldozers, etc.
Rental places are empty when it comes to small bulldozers or bobcat type machines or small excavators to that kills renting one for quite a while.
I got about 20 MORE 10 wheeler loads of dirt from the town after the flood because they're putting new fill in were the roads were washed out so I'm getting all the junk dirt they can't use (hardpan and cobble rocks). It's great fill for me but not for a road.
