Tracks, sprockets, idlers and rollers. One thing nice with Bobcat is the idlers have no set life span, one goes, just replace that one. Depending when you replace tracks, probably figure replacing sprockets too. track unit drive motors do have a click higher failure rate then wheeled units do. Still not high enough to scare me. As for a a five year old skidsteer with 3,000 hours, that tells me nothing. It could have been babied and over maintained and look brand new. Or a concrete company had it and pounded the living piss out. Hours don't mean anything if I don't know what kind of hours they were. Our 20,000 hour S220 which weren't the easiest hours out there is in better shape then my buddies 4,000 hour T300.</p></blockquote><p></p>
