He had a John Deere 350, a John Deere 550, & then he had the bigboy a, John Deere D/7. When I was around 9 or 10 I was with my Grandpa & all my uncles in the summertime on some job with them...either clearing some land, Bush hogging under brush, digging a pond, or cutting fire rows I thought I was as big as my Grandpa & uncles...ESPECIALLY WHEN MY GRANDPA PUT A WRENCH IN MY HAND & TOLD ME TO LOOSEN OR TIGHTEN SOMETHING ON ONE OF THOSE DOZIERS!!! Looking back now...I'm sure my Grandpa probably told me to loosen or tighten something JUST TO GET ME OUT OF THE WAY...BUT I LOVED BEING AROUND THEM & ALL THOSE DOZIERS!!! Thanks for the videos...you took me down Memory Lane for a bit to a VERY VERY PROUD & HAPPY PLACE!!! Much love from Mobile Alabama.

I would not expect those tracks to last much longer. Nobody likes to hear it but everything has a service life.

Neddless to say, I subsequently avoided the maneuver that cased the slip-off in the first place.

What happens if the tensions are to tight will the chain break? Please answer
@TheDIYGuyDOTnet6 жыл бұрын
If they are to tight it will cause more wear rather then if they are a little loose. If the tracks/ pins are worn it will cause the track chain to walk up on the sprocket and cause wear to the sprockets as well. A lot of times track tension is measured by placing a straight edge on the track between the front idler and the front carrier roller, if there is more than one. Different machines will have different specs, but the tension is measured between the straight edge and the lowest part of the sag in the track. It's usually somewhere around 2" for a smaller machines. As a general rule though, the tracks should be run a little loose, but not so loose that they drag on the track frame or pop and bang when turning because they are riding the sprocket teeth or jumping the roller flanges. You can look up the correct spec for your dozer and set the tension accordingly. Hope this helps you.

Sorry to hear that. You may want to pump grease into it until the adjuster to extends itself apart then you can clean and hone the barrel and replace the cup seal if it needs it and put it back together. Sometimes depending on the grease someone has put into it the grease can hardened up pretty solid/ hard, So some people have used boiling water to soak it in to make the grease more malleable. Not sure if it will work by pouring it over it a few times or maybe a towel or something like that on it and then pouring the boiling water onto it to keep it warmer longer. That way you don't have to remove it from the track loader.

When the track chain is worn that bad I weld the sprocket to form teeth. If you gauge the track chain you can probably buildup a tooth that fits better than the tooth of a new sprocket. I am not saying I am right I just used to work for a construction company that thought new was a cuss word!

@@TheDIYGuyDOTnet I have done it on many sprockets, I suggest using 7018 and a bit of preheat. I have done it when a new track chain was going on and I can't say I agree with that practice. I do agree with doing this for a worn track chain because you can size and contour the tooth to match your need. Better filler metal like 8018-C3, 309 stainless or high manganese build up can be used but I don't think the added cost is worth the benefit. Short circuit MIG is good if you are inside but I still recommend putting the first layer down with 7018 because 7018 will offer a good buffer that will tie into the base metal and the MIG will tie into the 7018. It is easier to control size and shape of MIG welds. To minimize or delete grinding is the ticket. This job as just welding is laborious and time consuming enough. Thanks for allowing people to express themselves with their own ideas ans solutions!

I don't know why you didn't fix the pads on the track,it couldn't be good for it to operate the machine with them missing.

There was only one pad missing as someone torched the bolts out of it as they messed the heads of them up. The sprockets showed up first as they came by Fedex. So until the new complete tracks got here ( they took a while longer as they came freight) the bulldozer was used only for a few hours on the new sprockets to grade some sand out for a rodeo arena and shortly after the ol gal did get some new complete tracks and pads put on her.

Slipping sprockets on the chain can see the bull gear lose some teeth. Don’t want that.

Should have just split the track. On that little dozer, i would have been done in an hour.

Anybody remember when you had to weld on the sprocket?
@changjohn30066 жыл бұрын
Coby Underground , rebuilding the sprocket by weld may cost you more than you buy a new one. Man hours are costly.
