Right side track not moving much

darioseixas · Jul 5, 2018

My JD 450's right side track is not moving very well. Left side is fine. This is making it impossible to use. I have lubed all the spots I can find, but it seems to not have much power to it(it has some). I have not lubed anything else besides the rollers. Any tips or ideas? It's from the 70s, so either a straight 450 or a 450b. Thank you!

It is possible that the clutch for that side is slipping,check the clutch and brake adjustment,see the lever is returning fully when you let it go,check to see if oil has leaked into the clutch housing and has got on to the clutch discs causing them to slip,also check the final drive on that side,is there any strange noise or jerking from that track,see what you find.
