Undercarriages
We Back Your Tracks
The honest truth is that when it comes to undercarriages, all you need to remember is: John Deere builds them better and John Deere backs them better. Choose from three different undercarriages to best fit the needs of your operation.
- John Deere Heavy Duty Undercarriage
- John Deere Extended Life Undercarriage
- John Deere Maximum Life Undercarriage
Key Features
Staggered Rollers
With staggered roller design, undercarriages have increased durability, less vibration, and a much smoother ride.
Track Shoes
John Deere track shoes are tough as nails because they're made of through-hardened boron steel. Available in a wide selection of shoe configurations, you can choose a shoe tailor-made for your application.
Track Rollers
Forged from a boron steel alloy then through-hardened to a good core hardness, our track rollers prevent bushings from loosening. We also deep heat treat the roller outside diameter for maximum wear life.
Track Links
Track links also forged from a boron-steel alloy allow deeper heat-treating, which helps keep the pins and bushings from loosening even in severe applications.
Compare Undercarriages
Savings are significant when you opt for the John Deere Maximum Life Undercarriage. In fact, tests* show the combination of SC-2 bushings, larger components, and improved seals deliver 57% per hour cost savings over standard sealed and lubed track.

Crawler Undercarriage Options
With rapid and unbalanced undercarriage wear eating up some 50 percent of the average contractor's maintenance budget, John Deere undercarriages are strong allies in the battle to keep uptime up and operating costs down. The steel that goes into our undercarriages provides the kind of deep-hardened resiliency that goes directly to your bottom line. And that's why we say the value that we build into Deere undercarriages is truly hardened to the core. We offer undercarriage choices to cover your needs.
John Deere Rubber Tracks
We've improved the roller-path life, steel-cord durability, and metal-core adhesive strength of our rubber tracks over the previous version. They're designed for trouble-free operation and simple maintenance.
Flexible financing options make it easy to replace or convert to rubber tracks, while our new machine and service parts warranty covers up to 18 months or 1,500 hours — whichever comes first — against material or manufacturer defects.
