![]() ![]() If you do put them on yourself make sure to get it aligned right away, A new track will likely "track" different than the old ones. Its really not as tough as it may appear. After the tension is loose depending on how high you have it off the ground you may need to remove every bogey on the outside which isn't a big deal then removing the rear outer driver is a must and the front large idler isn't an absolute must but it makes it easier to get off anyway, putting back on is a little more of a challenge but chains and a forklift make it allot easier on a guy. ![]() Make a hyd hose that runs from the back of the machine to the tension cylinders up front, your dealer can help you with the connections you need to the tension cylinder I can't recall what it takes but the other end you just plug into the hydraulics and that detensions the track. You have to get it jacked up fully off the ground.

We have the new tracks, and would like to put them on as much as we can ourselves. So, does anyone have a detailed walk-trough on how to change tracks on a D series Challenger or similar?

Symbolic of the medium dozer line’s long history of innovation, the Cat D6 XE is the world’s first electric drive dozer to offer the elevated sprocket design. The third unit, a D6 dozer with four-speed, fully automatic transmission, is finished in traditional Cat yellow with special black tracks and blade. The 175,000 image appears inside the cab too, where it is embroidered on the headrest and printed on a plaque denoting each unit’s limited-edition status.īuilt in East Peoria, Illinois, the first two commemorative units were Cat D6 XE electric drive dozers, featuring a dark grey and black paint scheme. Three customers have now taken possession of the commemorative units, which feature special decals on the fenders denoting the 175,000-unit milestone. ‘With our next-generation medium dozer line, which includes the new D5, D6 and D7 models, we continue to push these envelopes through adaptation of technology to drive productivity and efficiency to another level.’ ‘One of the original taglines to promote the early high-drive tractors was ‘Beyond Known Capabilities’, because these units set a new standard for efficiency, productivity and ease of operation,’ said Wes Holm, chief engineer for Caterpillar medium tractor products. Thirty-five years later, Caterpillar celebrated the unrivalled success of the elevated-sprocket design in the medium-dozer class by producing three commemorative 175,000 units in May 2020. For the first time, variable pitch angle tilt (VPAT) blades were made available to the D4H and D5H high-drive dozers models. This helped to fine-tune machine balance and ground pressure for specific applications more easily than oval track machines. ![]()
