Adair 14.5 belted track with snow kit

[mudbug3]

I really like Tim's newest track design! Not too wide and should provide outstanding traction on ice and logs with ice on them.

Who is that handsome guy on that new HDI?..........
Just so there is no confusion, the 14.5" belted track with cleat kit is the same as the 18.5 belted track,14.5" without the winter kit, 18.5" with the kit.
This is the last time she was so clean.lol.

How wide does that make your machine with winter kit?

Hey twizted1

The total width on this HDI with the winter kit installed, just as you see, is 69 3/4".
So far, for my aplication, this track design with the winter kits,is very aggressive,and works wonders in my swamp climbing over submerged logs and root systems.

Thank you. That's about what I figure my conquest to be also. My trailer is only 6 1/2' wide. So if I trailer it with the winter kit, I'll just have to be careful putting on and off the trailer. Thanks again.

I got my new set, hope to get them installed on my next set of days off.
This newer generation is slightly different than my original set, I think they will be a little better.

What's in the box? I didn't get a box. lol They look good to me. I had to order a bearing. So I have to wait to put mine on now.

Rebuild kit for the 18.5 Adair Chained Tracks that you can see wrapped up and stacked on a pallot in the background.
Even though I ended up with a set of extensions for the new Pro Tracks, I have the option of removing the extensions for summer use.

Anyone in Canada want an inexpensive Adair Track project? The box should include everything needed to refurbish the Chained Tracks.

Hey Doc, What changes were made on the new set,vs. the old set,and are the cleats the same as on the old set,as you mentioned you "clammed" one.(or was that your daughter,lol)

Twizted1,

Tomorrow is the day. Just put the bearing in. Adairs HD bearing. I think I like them. I like how they beef things up anyway. Tomorrow the tracks are going on. Can't wait! Video and pics to come, soon.

Well, these cleats are obviously longer, being part of a winter kit, and they are made of thicker material. They look much more heavy duty than I remember the old ones being. I can't compare, as the old ones are still out in the bush.
As for the Grousers, same material, but a different face design, little more aggressive. Looks like they will hang on better when turning, and will not slip sideways as easily. That's one thing I found really noticible, new tracks are quite Slippy, but as you scratch up the Grouser faces, they get much better.

I can stop scratching my head wondering how one of those cleats clammed,looks like it would be hard to clam the new ones even with a sledge.
If you want to put a really cool pattern on your concrete slab,just do about 5 or 6 doughnuts on it with your cleats,AWESOME!.If you do it at night,you get a spark show to boot.
I almost forgot to mention that the cleat kit works great for squishing all those moles under your lawn,it's so cool because they get squished,and planted all at the same time,no fuss,no muss.Great organic fertilizer.
