Pad Wear was created by hb11

What typically wears out first on an undercarriage? My sprockets, rails, bushings, idlers all look much less worn than the pads. Pads are about 40% worn and the rest don't look hardly worn at all. Is this normal?

Maybe someone rebuilt the complete under carriage but used the old pads which some do so I,m thinking maybe that,s what was done with yours unless you have had the tractor since new & have the history on it.Also where & what the tractor was used in will contribute to pad wear & other parts too.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
