    The Reputation of R.F.E Distributors for After Market Cat LGP Tracks ?

    Hello Heavy Machinery users. I am in the market for a set of LGP tracks for my 1976 D7G LGP, and all roads seem to lead to RFE Distributors in Indiana. Not having ever made any purchases from RFE in the past, I thought I had better ask around from the old hands in the Cat world, to hear...
