No, this is the predecessor to the 601... the Trackmaster 4T10.
Deal has already been closed with one of our forum Thiokol enthusiasts in WY.
Nice machine... there's plenty of info on the forum since the last couple of years... this has the dual-shaft power divider unit to steer rather than the brake-steer differentials like the 6-series. They work great... just a bit more clunky given there are defined ranges of H/M/L by the corresponding clutch packs. There are some pics on the forum..one of the members took his apart on his 4T4 power divider and posted some photos.

Hey Mainer...

Do you remember who had the pics of the power divider, I have searched but can't find them and would like to understand the inner workings of it so I can do some adjustments on mine and plan for parts for the future?

Thanks!

does this mean it steers like a snow trac with power to both tracks or to you still rob power off the inner track

 

[tomelroy]

the power divider actually has High, Neutral, and low range for each side (track). It steers because one sprocket is moving faster than the other, no braking involved.

same principal as the snow trac's varriator great system because both tracks are drivin might have to look around for one.would like to get something a little larger but i like the way my st preforms in the deep snow and the fact steering dosnt suck hp off the engine
