[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 9102, member: 307"] You will be happy with the increase in traction of any over the tire track because you will have to spin all the material out between the tires on each side as opposes to digging 4 small tires holes in order to get the loader to spin. it makes filling you bucket much easier. I run steel tracks on 2 of my machines all summer unless they are going to work on concrete or asphalt. I have never used the McLaren brand, but they look like a quality product. You can fully rebuild them by bolting one new pads and changing your side links and pivot pins. I would however encourage you to explore the cost of such a rebuilt compared to the easy and convience of just buying new again. Also the time it will take to remove all those rusty bolts. The Tracks Plus brand we sell for your loader list at 1389.00 Last 1500 to 1800 hours, can have any of the 3 parts that make the track up replaced should one become damage with 2 3/4 wrenches. Offer better floatation becasue they have a large pad area and they weigh less (@ 550 lbs) Which also makes them alot less of a battle to install too. At any rate I sure you will be happy with the improved performance regardless of which brand you choose. Ken [/QUOTE]
