Mike, sounds like you need some undercarrage. That is the most expensive part of running a track machine next to fuel. Worn track chains get snakey like trying to push a loging chain. New chains are as stiff as a piece of plank when you push them around on the floor. If you turn when going over a bump you will land with your rollers off them. To get the most for your dollar you should do a complete job. Track chains, rollers idlers and sprockets. If you put on new sprockets the worn chains will sharpen the tips up fast because as the chains wear the pitch lengthens. Your bottom rollers are likely worn a lot too. Check out the aftermarket undercarrage shops in your area.
Later Bob
