Anybody have knowledge of the slave cylinder on this old Nodwell. I think the rear end is a T-16. I would like to rebuild the slaves. Are parts available for this?

Do you have a picture there were several different slaves used on the T16?

those cylinders can be re built with a cat 0-ring kit they are the same style I have for blade cylinders on my Thiokol.

Here's the Nodwell with the Boy Scouts' Spryte. This is the machine that got me hooked on having a snow cat at my winter camp. The Nodwell was a very lucky find.
Cabin Boy has the Spryte now. Hope it's working well for him.

Here I am driving my "new" 1971 Nodwell out of the Forbes Ranch just south of Grand Teton Nation Park. It had been sitting idle for years but fired up and drove like a champ. Beginners luck for sure.

Thanks for the pictures! I remember the boy scout Spryte being here before.

From what I gather Nodwell machines are stoutly built, and have a good reputation for reliability. Nice size of machine you have there as well. Of all the models they made, my bet is that the FN15 series would be the most popular of them all today..

The FN 15 is the same size as a Spryte. Just right for my purposes as a grooming machine. I have to wiggle around in a forest for part of my track. Also moves around nicely on a small trailer.

If you don't have it fixed yet, take them down to a larger Napa store, these are usually standard truck parts.

If not, contact Keith Adamson, Parts Manager at Track Industries in Calgary. 403/255-1101.
