I bought a 450 B Case dozer , the man said it had been setting about 5years , I think maybe 10 years . The tracks are like new only froze up from setting . I have sprayed diesel fuel on all pins and bushings twice , sprayed brake fluid , ran tractor back and fourth , maybe loosing a little bit . Does anyone know a faster way to free up tracks .

Hi bill, thanks for the input on my thread I have sense got it figured out. Sounds like you're going about it the right way. Have you tried using penetrating oil? It may cost a little more but might work a little quicker. I like pb blaster but have been using sea foam lately and I think that stuff works miracles. You may be able to find it in gallon jugs and just pour it on. Good luck

your best bet is going to be to use a good penetrating oil buy a case of it spray let it sit for a while spray it again and start running the machine
