All.
Am restoring a 5J D2 that has badly rusted track shoes and links from sitting in a padock. Does anyone in Australia have or know where I can get some good/reasonable replacements in Aus? Shoes are single grouser 16" wide with cut out in center. Would also be interested in 2 complete wide gauge track sets if can't get the snow shoes. Located in Vic and happy to travel.
Would possibly consider complete machine if at the right price.

best of luck - you may have to import them from the US.

I ended up using D3 shoes (sacrilige I know and narrow too😞) as I could not find any wide D2 shoes anywhere in Aus.... except for some worn out ones that a person in Victoria wanted 30 dollars each for...

Chains...same deal, nowhere to be found...Rollers...same deal..none about and you may have to use D3 ones now if you want the machine to run.

Alternatively get in touch with the guys that import machines and Cat parts for the US - Mike Meyers may know the person's name.

Snow? In Australia? Heh, just joking - I know you have some there although it's getting a bit sparse these days isn't it?

Yep. Thinking I may have to import. Chains still available new and my rollers are good. Will see what I can find out.
