Hey guys -
I've got a chance to buy a decent set of ARPS halftracks that came off a Super A. Will they fit on a Super C, and if so, how do they attach to the tractor? (When I saw these they were stretched out on a small trailer, and the tractor was nowhere to be seen.) Does anybody have a photo of them installed?
I just got done transferring a set of ARPS halftracks from a JD 40 onto a JD 50, which was relatively straightforward, but the idler brackets and tensioner arrangement are completely different than the ones off the Super A.
I know that the biggest challenge, other than the idler set-up, is whether the tracks themselves will be long enough: If there is a significant difference in wheel circumference between the A and the C, the tracks won't be long enough. (And ARPS has been out of business for quite a long time now, so it's not like I can go right out and buy a few links off the shelf to make up the difference...)
Does anybody out there have experience with these, or know where else I could ask?
Thanks in advance for anything positive that anybody can contribute to this discussion...
