Subject: John Deere tracks (pics)


NC Iowa		We have ran Deere RX tractors now for 5-6 years and are noticing a difference in track quality from the 9620RX to the newer 9RX 640. The tracks from the earlier tractors seem to hold up better and would show normal wear and cupping of the tracks as they aged.

With the tracks we have now they are just coming apart. Large chunks. Rubber seems to be coming apart inside the lugs and will come up and hit the window during road travel. Rocks also fly all over from getting into the voids.

We do our fair share of roading but no more than when we had better luck with tracks. We think something has changed in the curing process post Covid. Deere also wants to blame weight on the rear but the front tracks break apart first???

Pictures below are of our 2 year old 9RX640 with 1400hrs and my neighbors case 600quad with 2000.

Our new combine tracks are also showing unusual wear.

NW MN		Same make and grade of track? I don’t recall but I’m wondering if they could be ordered with camso 6500, 5500 or 4500

NC Iowa		Yeah good question but I believe so, all camso 6500. Case may have changed but I’m not sure.

I have it from a good source that Camso is warranting alot of tracks failing on the Rx. Get a hold of them.

Take care

McCanna, ND		Poor cure process on the tracks. I have a set on continentals doing the same thing. It should be a warranty thing but good luck getting anything out of it

NW MN		Priced Firestone vs Michelin in a 380/54 in the past I believe Michelin was more now it’s flipped and the Firestone was more.

East Central South Dakota		Your neighbors 600 has Continental/goodyear/contitech/LOC (depending on year) tracks. I have always thought the Camsos were better, but maybe not anymore? I had camsos on last quad and liked them, got the Loc/continentals now (all that was available) and so far they are ok, but only 4xx hours on them so far.

I agree that your track wear isn’t very good at all.
