    Penetrating oil can help a lot. We spent about an hour trying to drive a pin out on an American 7220 crane with a 16 pound sledge. We decided to lance it out the next morning. We had sprayed some penetrating oil on it when we started. I soaked it down good with Knocker Loose before we quit for the night. We went out the next morning and decided to try to hit it again. On the first hit, the pin shot out and landed 10 feet away. On pins like you had, you can take the grease fitting out, use a drill to clean out the hole, add some penetrating oil, install the grease fitting and use the grease gun to push penetrating oil in. There are also tools like the Grease Buster that use a hammer or air hammer to inject penetrating oil. Penetrating oil needs some time to penetrate. Soak everything down at your first opportunity, don't wait until days later when you try to take it apart.

      Totally agree, we use stuff called plus gas, breaks loose pins and bolts very easily but for best results leave it about an hour with repeated applications.

    In the machine shop I worked in we had a center hole ram, I believe it was a 50 ton ram and we had a 100 ton ram on a porta- power pump! For pulling screw auger pins which actually worked the same way just some of those pins were seized so bad we had heat them at the same time we were jacking them out! Basically the same as what y’all are doing, just wanted to say that Mike! Just if you ever get a bad one, there is a ram with a center hole for pulling! But y’all are doing great my friend! We dealt with seized pins all the time and I would have to go to the machine shop and weld the nut on for the machinist! That’s the only point I was making! Good job guys!

    As a rule of thumb you want the narrowest tracks you can run that will still keep you on top.
    On harder ground or ground with a lot of timber you will find your track chain life plummet. Wider grouser plates mean more leverage on the chains and that just kills the life of the chain plus your fuel burn will go up.
    I know of several companies that swap tracks on a per job basis depending on conditions. Once you get organised it's not difficult to swap out tracks and while it is an additional cost up front, depending on the types of jobs you do, the savings mount up fairly quickly.

    when i ran cat D10's and cat D 11's i ran some that had the narrow pads on them. the narrow pads was called the rock tracks, and yes they was able to push a tad bit more, but when it came time to back fill the job, u was stuck all the time, unless u was able to get down to good and dry dirt with them narrow pads.
    so we ran wide pads all the time, and some jobs we still got stuck pushing them back. so i agree the wider pads done way better than the narrower ones. great video to show how u take tracks off.
    us we spilt our tracks and just walked onto the loaner tracks, till our tracks came back to us, usually in a few weeks, we had them back with the bushings turned and new grousers welded on.

    consider drilling a relief hole in the center of each pad so you extrude dirt when the chain goes over the drive gear. this can reduce wear on the drive gear as the dirt can escape instead of being packed hard into the gap in the chain/pad.

    We run 2 machines. One had 24 and one with 30s. Just replaced the one with 24s with a new JD 850L with 30s for traction and floatation. From watching your videos we do a lot of similar work. The 24s definitely had their place but for our overall usage the 30s was more practical.

  • @darrensydorko4976

    Should also make some really heavy saw horse stands to set your machine onto. Then you have the possibility to lift and move the blade and ripper out of your way when you need to do work around them or say if you need to remove the track frame to do your bottom rollers. Sure makes life easy when the track frames are upside down
