[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 11837, member: 782"] From my experiences , you will be better off to pay the price and get OEM Bobcat tracks , we have tried "all" the brands out there that I have heard of trying to save a buck and have gotten stuck many times , you will get longer life with less headaches OEM , when and if something does go wrong with the track from OEM , down here they will take care of it quickly , shipping back a failed set of aftermarket tracks creates down time and numerous problems , also I have found that some of the aftermarket tracks cause other problems like the pitch ain't just right and it wears the spockets bad , have also seen cases where they are a little longer and the front idler blocks stick out past the frame the moment they are put on --------------I am presuming that this is not your first set of tracks at 1970 hours as you say they are cracked but not worn or maybe you bought the machine used --------- what brand is on there now and do you have a wide track T190 which is a different track then the standard model ---------like someone posted on here , the OEM spend alot of time developing and testing their tracks , the aftermarket world makes them and throws them out there and you are their guinne pig ,--------- if I " had " to pick an aftermarket track right now , I would say the newest style of "premium" track from Solideal from what I seen so far is ok but still too soon to be judgemental , I really don't think they are available yet all over , they were sent as a trial set as my customer cut back on buying from them as they were not up to par and they wanted him back , he has only a few hundred hours on a test set and they look great , but time will tell [/QUOTE]
