Does any one know where you can get T20 sprockets 15 tooth #60 chain if there is such a thing would like to have a heavier chain for the tracked machine I'm building.

i think that has been tried, the sprocket has to be made but i think the chain is too wide and hits the t-20 case
and if you narrow the sprocket it then is a #50 chain ?
I had Whipper make me some 630(same width as 530) and others have gone 60. I know Kevin even has an Attex set up with 80 chain.

Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level, then beat you to death with stupidity!
Whipper also splined up a set of #60 sprockets for me. There's plenty of room. Send him a message and see what he can do for you.
Same here, I'm running #60 on the T20 in my Argo and I got my sprockets from Whipper. Here are a few pictures to show the clearance:
I just got the new T20 sprockets from RI and I'm ready to press them in. I'm wondering if I should apply some Loctite stud & bearing mount when I do it. I know there wasn't any originally, but since this will be a refit I'm thinking it might fill in any small gaps and make things just a bit stronger. I've got the stuff in the fridge anyway and I don't think it can hurt.
You're mounting the sprocket on to the output shaft?
I did not realize you could buy the sprocket that way.

Yes. The output shaft and sprocket combo runs $146/$183 depending on the side. The sprocket alone was about $30 per. The sprockets are just pressed on. They have an internal knurl that I guess cuts its way onto the shaft. You do need a press to get them on and off.
My shafts had some scoring where the seal rubs and the sprockets didn't look that great so I put on some Speedi-sleeves to give the seal a good surface and I'll be pressing on the new sprockets. Total cost to get them good as new will be under $100 for both. A much better deal than buying new.

Thanks!
Great info.

After you press the new ones on just tack weld them in place. Mine pressed on so hard I don't think I needed to but tigged a couple spots anyway.
What it lacks in ground clearance it makes up for with traction.
