Actually the 40,420,430, etc gauge works on a 40 - 4 roller only. So to answer your question, No the gauge will not work on the BO, MC, early 40. I'm going to say the 3 roller had some different dimensions on some of the parts. Lavoy explained it better than anyone in a previous posting:foxd wrote:I would be interested in one for a 420.
I see that you say one of the gauges cover the 40, 420, 430, 440, 1010, 2010. Does that mean the older track system, BO, MC & early 40 are not covered?
Thanks!
Chains and pads:
BO Lindeman, MC and 40 all use the same chain, BO and MC had the same pads. 40 uses same pads as 420, 430, and 440. MC and 40 both use the same two sprockets depending on tread width desired. BO, MC, and early 40 all use 29 link chains.
420, 430, and 440 all use the same chain, pads and sprockets. Chains could be 31, 32, or 35 link for late 40-430, 440 and 1010 are 36.
1010 and 2010 under 42,000 use the same chain and pads, 1010 uses the same sprockets as late 440, and 420/430 if they have the narrow treadwidth sprocket installed.
All of the Deere crawlers up through 350 use the same pitch chain, but the pin and bushing diameter is different.
420-440, 1010, and 2010 under 42,000 use the same pin and bushing diameter, 1010 and 2010 are 4 bolt, 420-440 are 2 bolt, but the 4 bolt rails will work on 420-440.
2010 after 42,000 and 350 are the same rails, but 2010 is 39 links, 350 is 36.
Rollers:
BO Lindeman, MC, and 40 under 62,263 all use the same bottom rollers. MC and Early 40 use the same front idler, and this idler can be used on BO Lindeman.
40 after 62,263, 420, 430, 440, and 1010 all use the same bottom roller, and upper idler if 5 roller. 2010 used a different style axle and seal in its rollers, but they will fit late 40-1010 as well.
40 after 63,263, 420, and 430 all use the same two front idlers depending on 4 or 5 roller, and which option the 4 roller had.
440 and 1010 use the same front idler.

They are kind of covered, but not completely. Track links are the same, so no problem there. Track pads are the same as long as you are not talking about the stamped pads like on most MC's and all Lindemans. Roller dimension on BO, MC, and 3 roller 40 might be the same, but I do not know for sure. 4 roller 40 and up are the same as 420, etc. Track pitch is the same on all of them. Rail height is shorter on BO, MC, and all 40 than 420 and later, so that won't work.
There might be some other things it would work on, would have to look at the gauge a while to know for sure.

I should have the finished gauges within 2 weeks from today. The pricing is still between 30.00 and 35.00. The one company that is doing the laser etching cannot give me an exact price since they are unsure of the amount of time it will take them to do it. She gave me a ballpark number but it's a do one and fine tune the ballpark price kind of deal! I still have to make them a jig so they can do multiples at onetime to reduce the costs.digitup2 wrote:Tell me the cost and I will order the set !.Digitup.
