    Posted: 20 hours 28 minutes ago at 3:09pm
My Son-in-law's HD5G had a couple of track pad bolts come loose so he bought a few used ones from General Gear in Boise. So far so good, but they didn't have very many available, and they said that normally they just torch them off and don't attempt to salvage track bolts.

I have an HD5 Parts Manual, and it lists the track pad bolts as 1/2" NF. Yes, the threads are indeed 1/2" NF, but the shank of the bolts measure right at 0.530", or roughly 17/32".

The original bolts fit quite snugly in the holes, and a standard 1/2" bolt rattles around fairly loose.

Does anyone know of a source for new, correct bolts for these machines?

The world keeps moving on, an this old guy does not. 

But anyway Caterpillar use to have a on line publication called 

  One Safe Source     had all their hardware listed

At one time 40 years ago Cat hardware was the best and in many cases cheaper than than lesser products. But from things on ACMOC some dealers seem to price it high to keep incidental business away.
