- Joe_DDoug,
With the M60 sprocket carrier there was a grove/guide in the center to keep the track from pulling to the outside. It helped reduce wear on the track end plates and also helped prevent cupping of the inner sprocket teeth. The "Fish Hook" effect was more of a detriment to the sprocket and rotating them extended their life, but what a PIA it was.
And an M88, and the associated hydraulic power tools, and several other crews...- Doug_Kibbey- Joe_DDoug,

Joe,
That sounds about right. Helped immensely to use a fork lift during this procedure.
