I checked the parts books, service manual, custom track service handbook and my after market reference for the D9G and it's not in any of them.
Took the numbers off a idler that I have--Here goes--app.37 inches across-
117 inches in total dia,--21 inches width--blocks are 6 3/4 x 7 inches.
Hopes this helps
Hello Ols Magnet & Al Engines,
Many many thanks to you both for your efforts and assistance with my search for the dimensions of the "D9" Series "G" tractor front idlers. I will certainly pass the measurements on to the person who intends building from scratch a 1/5th scale working replica, which will be radio controlled.
Once again my most sincere thanks. GREAT SUPPORT !!!
Sincere regards

"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."
