I sold my 350C for $7000 & the guy is planning on 4-5k in a new undercarriage with him doing most of the work. Had 8 calls in less than a week. Listed it on Craig's List in Eastern Iowa

Hi Guys, Just wanted to say Thanks Again for all the advice!!! I listed my 350C on Craig's List in Eastern Iowa, for $7000. There's a lot of demand for them around here. Sold it to the second guy that looked at it, he's planning on about 4-5k in a new undercarriage. Had 8 people call,, must have bee...

I have it listed in Lavoy's Little Shop O' Deeres, if anyone is interested. I'll send pictures to any email address,,Give me an offer.

1979 350C Crawler/Loader with ripper in East Central Iowa. Needs undercarriage work. (Tracks, Sprocket, etc.) Runs strong & I'm still using it. Been debating on doing the work, but really don't need it anymore. I'll send pictures to an email address. Give me an offer, my wife might take it!!

For some reason, thats what my wife keeps telling me to do,,sell it & let the new owner do the undercarriage work. After 30 years, I really should start to listen to her.

I was told today that the Drive Sprocket could be built up? Sections welded on it? The guy also told me to turn the pins,, man he has me lost already.

I have been real nice to the wife & she told me to go ahead with the project! (There's a hidden motive I'm sure) I have a skid steer to help with the heavy lifting. Kinda looking for good used parts. It's a strong running machine, had surprized a few watching her topple trees. I guess a smart 1st st...

I have a 1979 350C crawler loader that runs Great! Track pads are smooth & the drive sprocket is sharp enough to shave with. Question is,, where do I start? I have never operated on a track before. (Plenty of work on antique tractors). Costs? What all might need replaced? I really like the machine,,...
