Swapping tracks on a Kubota

[@ThriftyGarage]

How do you like the zig zag? I'm considering them for our T66. We do a lot of landscape remodels and want something that won't tear up homeowners lawns as much.

[@skidco]

They are the only tracks I want on a mcahine anymore. I love them.

[@michaelsfabwork2985]

Nice video thank you for showing how to change the tracks. Where did you buy the other tracks at. Take care and stay safe.

[@skidco]

I got them from one of my Kubota dealers here in town. When I bought my 65 they switched the tracks out for me. Then when I bought the 75 I liked the tracks so much I switched them over to the 75.

[@USA-vo5by]

What brand are the zigzag tracks ? Are you happy with them at this point ? Thank you

[@skidco]

They are Camso SD tracks. Extremely happy with them.

[@michealfreeman9454]

I see you run those tracks all year, how bad to they tear up the turf ? I am trying to decide between the multi bar and the Camso's SD like yours. thanks and nice video

[@skidco]

Let me put it this way. They are the only tracks I want to run on my machines anymore. Really good in the mud, on hillsides, on dirt, in the snow and probably the best ive used in the turf. I had a video probably a year or so ago making a fire pit. If you search for it I had to track through the turf multiple times carrying rock to a fire pit. You could barely tell I was there. You still have to be careful turning and what not, but id say they are the best choice for tracks.

@@skidco Thanks for the reply I am getting a New SVL65-2 next week and they are putting the Camso SD wide tracks on it.

[@skidco]

You will not be disappointed at all. If you are on slopes or in the mud they do way better than the dirt lug or C blocks will ever do. I love them in the snow. Awesome tracks.

Folks. Hose off your under carriage before taking grease valves out. Get it nice n clean n dry first.

[@Living716]

what size are the tracks with the z tread? I have the svl65 and wonder if i can fit a 400x86x52 on it.

[@ericfortner3519]

I would love to know the answer to this question also.

[@coltonlassiter7790]

What’s your reasoning for the wide tracks? I assume they do better as far as pushing power and stuff? Is it super noticeable?

[@skidco]

Yes. more stable. More floatation. Pushs better. I like the wide track better. It does really good in the snow as well.

[@skidco]

Yes. I like the wide tracks for going into the woods and for more stability on hillsides.

[@1969unclebuck]

what size are the tracks 380 or 400

[@danmcgivern1345]

Do those tracks make that big of a difference in the snow? Do you leave them on in the summer?

[@skidco]

Huge

[@danmcgivern1345]

@Skid-Co do you leave them on in the summer?

[@skidco]

@@danmcgivern1345 yep. they do extremely well on hill sides and mud I love them. Its the only track ill use now.

[@danmcgivern1345]

@Skid-Co Thank you for your input. I guess I will be shopping for some myself.

[@ericobrien1668]

How many hours do you expect the camso tracks to last?

[@skidco]

I have around 600 on them now and they haven't worn the top head block off yet. Id say just as much as any other good track. Depends on what you do with it.

[@1969unclebuck]

looks like the 65 & 75 use the same tracks

[@skidco]

Yes they do.

[@danmcgivern1345]

How much did the stickers cost?

[@skidco]

The stickers on the boom are the new factory stickers. they came on the machine.

[@danmcgivern1345]

@@skidco I meant the ones you said you blew off with the pressure washer

[@skidco]

Sorry. $110.00 each.

[@doubleeranch169]

I missed it I guess. Why did you get the svl75?

[@skidco]

Everyone told me it woas so ,much better than the 65. Its not

[@doubleeranch169]

@@skidco gotcha, thanks. I ended up going with the Takeuchi TL8. Will you go back to a 65 after the 75 needs to be traded ?

[@skidco]

@@doubleeranch169 sorry for the slow reply. Some of my messages don't show up until I go to a different part of my channel. I already priced out a new 65. But with the new 75 coming out and the changes they made I may get one of those. I have a little while to see what comes out.
