Ny-Lint Mobile Dragline Conversion

Wow, those are some nice track pads! I think you will want to make the sides of the rollers and idler thicker so they don't wear down as fast. Maybe about twice as thick. At least that would be a problem on a 1:1 machine that sees thousands of hours of operation.

Jared,

Ya, you are spot on! Problem is, to do them any wider I will have to move the frame rail out and that changes everything else down there. So for testing, I'm going with it as is. If I like the new tumbler and drive arrangement i plan to widen the rails and make new parts.
