Jde. My Mind isn't what it use to be. Found this in the archives."In regards to pressing them out yourself?usually takes at least a 100 ton press for small tracks and 300 ton is more usual. That being said I've got a Deere 420 crawler here that a guy did all his own pins and bushings with a 50 ton log-splitter. He made a custom cradle and it worked. I assume the bushings were not as tight as new ones would be in new track chains. If the guy had asked me first, I'd have told him that his log splitter wouldn't work.So, you never know"
The other one we haven't found was where you told us the one you used to use at John Deere, would push the pins out with such force it put holes in the concrete wall across from the machine and our idea was dangerous to make such a machine. I think it was deleted when we got into a heated discussion with one of the other posters( not you) about such an endeavor.
We even went online and found a company across the pond that made a portable pin pushing tool (hydraulic) for field work for smaller machine tracks.They found out that we wouldn't supply them with a gazillion dollars to buy one (can't remember their outragous price) so we were forced to do what we did the hard way. We're sorry about the passing of your friend who bought the John Deere press. I'm not sure it would be disrespectful if you were to ask about the press?Seems as though someone will end up with it,if it still isn't being used there, or worse sold for scrap, and no use to anyone.
We found a sight where you can look at for the pumps, it does give you specs and PSI measurements and ratings. hope it helps.

Today's Featured Article - The Fordson F Ignition System - by Anthony West. A fellow restorer contacted me earlier this year asking for some help and advice on a model F that he was restoring. He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
