    I need info on greasing the front idlers on a DMC 1450

    I just took delivery of a DMC 1450. While greasing it, we couldn't find any grease zerks on the front idlers??? I hope they aren't like a car wheel whereas I'd have to take the track apart and pull the wheel hub off to grease it. There is a cap on the hub but I didn't have time yet to see if...

    I need someone to rivet new brake linings to my brake shoes.

    Nodwells periodically need to have their steering brake shoe linings replaced. The lining material is riveted to the shoes just like clutch material to a clutch. Several places used to do the work, but now I can't find anyone. EA Patson brothers retired Josh at Alaska Clutch closed up shop a...

    Cutting down a Nodwell 110 OE rearend to fit a Nodwell 60

    A Nodwell 60 uses a T-16 rear end whereas a Nodwell 110 uses an OC15 rear end. I would like to put the heavier 110 rear end into a 60. 60 rear ends are hard to find parts for and they're obviously weaker than the larger 110 rear ends. A 110 rear end would never break in a 60. The...

    Are older Ford 300CI I6 engines basically the same?

    We have a Go-Trac tracked vehicle from about 1974. This is close to a Nodwell 60 It has a Ford straight six 300 in it and we may need to put a replacement engine in it. Being that it's in a track rig, the engine sits down in the frame half way below the floor boards of the cab between the...

    Using leather cups in steering slave cylinders?

    My hunting partner, Mick, has a Go-Tract 1000 which is basically the same as a Nodwell 60. GT-1000s have T16 rear ends. This one was transformed into a GT-1200 because someone transplanted a Nodwell 110 rear end into it, which in itself is not a problem, actually a good move. The GT uses...

    Getting your track rig painted.

    I've acquired a Nodwell CF60 which is painted in Camo. I'd like to get it back to it's original colors. Has anyone had a paint shop paint their track rig? I've talked to two shops here in Anchorage and they were hesitant to talk about because they didn't really have any idea what a...

    Does a Bombardier J10 really exist?

    I have a friend who's looking for a J10 but I can't find anything on such a machine anywhere. There's lot of info on J5s. What got him interested in a J10 is because he wants something a little larger than a J5 to use in the mud but still easy to transport. Another friend said he had a J10...

    Looking to buy a Nodwell 60

    I've been using RN110 Nodwells for a number of years. I'm now looking to move to a smaller version, the Nodwell 60 so I can haul them with a smaller truck. They're also easier to work on. These can also known as Flextrac F60s or Canadaair Flextrac CF 60s. They're all basically the same, just...
