D4 Idler

I changed mine over to oil filled like a D4D. Contact White Tractor parts and ask for Warren. The phone number I have is 800-821-2798.

Easy repair is to weld that shaft and lathe it back to spec though I reckon some of those shafts were designed to be reversed for a extra life, you can also re-sleeve the bronze bushes if you get stuck, but if money is burning a hole in your pocket here are the part numbers from Parts Book 7U27570-Up

Go on the Machinery Trader website and use their Parts Search function, you will find all these parts are available Stateside from different vendors, possibly even your local Cat Dealer

Thanks for the phone number shelbysharpd4, sometime I’dlike to switch the idlers to the solid type, my dozer needs new all new tracksbut until then I think I’ll go cheap and try to find a shaft. Mike: I wish Icould use my old shaft but I messed up big time. I have no book and should havegotten one before I attempted to pull the shaft. I tried taking it apart like Idid a D2 and pretty much ruined the shaft (dang). Thank you for the partnumbers, I’m still looking for the shaft.

These tracks r still 4 sale, i'd like sell both track frames complete. best to call 508 333 933six
