my sumitomo decided to break just when i needed it, had to hire a machine in for a day as i was stuck, they never seem to break when they are parked up do they lol
anyway the track has separated and one of the pins/bolts has snapped half of it fell out and the other half is stuck in situ , i can see that being a battle to get out i guess they make hydraulic pullers ? or do i just get it hot and beat it out ? and where would i buy a new pin ?
thanks you

Re: track problems
Andy, I am no expert on tracks, but perhaps if you have a half decent pattern then you could get a new pin turned at a local engineering company? I have never taken a track apart before but the 'hot' spanner does tend to work in most instances.
