Re: Dragline Crawler Build
Tom,
Good idea on the brass bushing. I have basically checking every one I drill. I had been thinking if the cap in the drill guide starts to hog out I would make one in steel, but a brass...

Re: Dragline Crawler Build
Tom,
I wanted to use brass tube or solid brass so that it wasn't as hard as steel. I would rather replace the pins vs making new pads as the holes wear.
I was thinking about just putting a...

Re: Dragline Crawler Build
I think in the last photo the bottom pad is loose allowing slop at that drive dog. When I hold them snug they all impact pretty good. I plan on some sort of spring tension system on the idlers.

Re: Dragline Crawler Build
Tom,
Thanks. I thought I would probably need to angle the drive dogs on the pads. I have dividing plates so I can try that if it comes to that. I think I might start by just making a few more...
