TM 9-2350-247-10 TRACK SHOE WEAR LIMITS — Continued 0061 01 9. Dead shoes (T130 and T150). Look for shoes with one end that sticks up above the same side of the next shoes on upper side of track. This is caused by the rubber bushing rotating in the shoe. Record fault on DA Form 2404 and report to unit maintenance. If carrier has extra shoes stowed on front of carrier, replace dead shoes (T130) (WP 0060 00) or (T150) (WP 0060 01). 10. End Connectors (T150 only). Visually look at the outside edge thickness of the end connectors. If any end connector appears to be worn where the sprocket teeth make contact more than the rest of the end connectors, the end connector must be removed to measure it with the track gauge (WP 0081 00, Item 21A). The inside portion is generally where it will wear out and can only be checked when it is removed from the track shoe. If you remove the end connector to measure it and reinstall it, make sure you have unit maintenance torque it properly before operating the carrier for any length of time or going on any missions. Measure the outside edge thickness of end connector. If the track gauge fits over the end connector edge, end connector is worn. Have unit maintenance replace end connector.
