Ii have a D3B. Approx how many hours can I expect to get out of the U/C in sandy muddy condition?

We get about 12-1400 hours and then they are due for a turn in sand/clay mix. These are sealed and lubricated Berco tracks, and usually at around 2000-2200 hrs they are starting to squeak and get loose on the pins/bushings and want to run off if we put it on a slope. The sand we run in is extremely abrasive especially when wet

Sand is the hardest on undercarriage. In normal conditions the warranty is usually 3000 hours but it's also pro rated. I would think in sandy mud about half that would be doing good. I know guys that do coral cleaning with track loaders often have to replace undercarriage every year. Now that I think about it, manure is the hardest on undercarriage followed by sand.
