[QUOTE="864wood, post: 158, member: 38"] I bought an 864G(relic) out of the rental fleet of Bobcat of Baltimore. This machine had the original straight bar Bridgestone tracks. As with all rental units, people use them hard and put them away wet. I got the machine with 990 hrs and presently have 1300 hrs and I am getting new tracks this week. I was quoted @1500 plus tax per side not including labor. The tracks are an after market design called "Charlie Browns"?? It is a zigzag pattern track with as square edge bar that continually exposes an agressive cutting edge as the tracks wear down. After I have them installed I will post to let everyone know how they are. These tracks along with the new alternating waffle sent out on new machines are supposed to ride alot smother then the straigt bar and wear longer. Wish me luck as Team Fountain knows I really need the new tracks because I achieved the impossible 2 weeks ago. I buried my machine right front track low and at a nose down 38% list when he finally showed up to drag my sorry but out of the quickmud I had mired in. I was actually quite proud of this dubious achievment because it really takes alot to bury a track loader. We belive it was due in part to the racing skicks I had on my machine. [/QUOTE]
