You might try going to CNH website, go to construction equipment. I looked up parts on my 310-g, was some good exploded views you can enlarge. Helps if you have serial #, breakdown for parts list was serial number breaks. Scott

i had one years ago, i replaced mine with hard threaded rod 1 inch fine, i made 2 new nuts to fit in the coller of the bracket that goes around the front idle wheel. it solved my problem with the tracks coming off, it looks worse than it is to fix.
i got the threaded rod from mcmaster-carr.

You can buy new aftermarket mechanical adjusters almost as cheap as you can make them. I bought two this past summer for my 310G. If the female threads are stripped you can weld in new steel nuts to fix.

Adusters at this place are $62 each. You might find cheaper if you shop around.

If the threads on the big long bolt are bad - yon can get new bolt for $77 or make a new one from grade 8, 1" threaded rod.

i have a case 310-c and was on a side hill and hit a stump , i bent the threaded rod that was used to adjust the track , my question is whats the best way to fix this and it looks like its been welded on and a poor job of fixin it the right way , (i"ll attach pictures )the threaded rod was turned down on the end to fit inside a nut that was weled on the end cap that covers the spring(i want to replace the nut on that end cap or make a new one ?) , is that cap supposed to turn and if so can i remove it ? or do i need to remove the whole track assembly , darn im lost to the best way to fix this thing , and also the long rod that go"s thru the cover and spring , what does that hold and can it be turned to remove the cap that the adjusting bolt was in ?

I had a similar problem I asked it it was possible to put a Hydraulic aduster in its place, use same wishbone on the idler wheel, but no one had the answer. Bought new bolt and nnut fom Zimmermans in Versalles Mo had what I needed.
