Here is a pin wear chart compliments of our good friend "Swishy".  I don't see anything that matches your measurements.  [attachment=64375]cattrackwearchartaf3 Red.jpg[/attachment]

Thank you, after rechecking my math it should be 27.125. That fits with my theory that there is minimal wear on this undercarriage.

Robert, you are like a lot of the rest of us and run the tracks waaaaaay past what they should have.  Track work is expensive so if the machine is not used much no big deal until a track comes off!!

That would be 130% worn. New hardened wear surface is only about 1/8" deep on most undercarriage components.
