Yes I'd be curious because I couldn't find a listing that matched the channel on this undercarriage. I'll have to check the 3J and see if it's the same profile

are you looking to steel to build track frames or looking to buy 5 roller fames ? I could get some dimensions if you needed next week when I go to the cabin for Christmas

Hi Martin, I just want to buy a good used set from a parts tractor. The standard ones are four rollers, just like mine, that's all I need/want

Refresh - still looking. Jeff M, apologies for not responding - I just have a regular D2 5U - the later series had longer track frames and that's what I'm after, a pair in good condition. About 1/3 of all production had them. I'd have to think there are some sitting in a boneyard somewhere

Neil, would the 5 roller frames from a 5J Trackson work? They are not sprung (solid bar rather than a spring). I dont know if that would make any difference.

Hi Grant, I think they'd conflict with the 2S dozer frame as the front of the tracks are already pretty close to it, but thanks for offering that idea. They could probably be cut down and a new spring saddle fabricated. Do you have some pictures perhaps with a tape measure on them

Hey Neil, I'm no expert but I think the dedicated loader track frames are a different animal than just the longer frames. I considered it on my 7u with the loader I have and the problems seemed like more trouble than it was worth.
