    Do your customers generally load the blade and C frame onto another bed with an excavator?

    Thanks.
    I don't have my new one for about another 4 months still, they are back logged on builds. But i keep hoping i specced it right, but ultimately i took their word for it that the weight transfer onto the drivers will be right. But I'll just have to have faith that enough will be put onto the drivers.
    Thanks for sharing your neck lengths.
     
    Nothereoften Thanks this.

    Hey Ron, in the picture I cannot see a pin in the sprocket to take the slack out of the tracks. Do you take the cover off and adjust them up with a grease gun, or does that factory over-tighten them for shipping purposes?

    Edit to add: Maybe the way that you have it chained in the middle of the track frame under the tracks is holding them up, but I don't see any slack on the top side.
     
    cke Thanks this.
