How did you limp it back to the shop? I'd be going back to the e-bay guy wanting the right links that you paid for.

took some 1/4 in chain and looped it though the holes in the pads and walked it back little bit of coxing with the pry bar was required every rotation

once we got some heat in the pins 10 good swings with the 12lb hammer and they came out
wasn't bad at all once we got them cooking

I didn't think it would take much to move it 75'. Being you got it back where you can work on it, I'd look at putting new tracks on it. Your tracks are worn out and one has already broke. There's a good chance other links could also be at their breaking point. What would happen if it broke in a bad location and you couldn't move the machine or fix it where it sat?

I'd have a boom support if you're picking people up with it. Too much heat could destroy the links but they're already shot anyway.

I usually take the old hose to a shop to have a new one made but not sure if it is a steel line or a hose on your machine.
