The SALT descripton as an acronym is interesting. I see it mentioned a lot in modern equipment. I last worked for a Deere dealer around 1989. We had two track presses and I sometimes got stuck doing pins and bushings when things were slow in the winter. It is awful and boring work. It was even worse when I got stuck doing one of the newer "sealed" tracks." At the time, I had heard about "oil filled" tracks but hadn't heard the SALT acronym. The salt undercarriage parts I was referring to is something I saw in a mid-1950s Allis Chalmers catalog. I didn't think the "Sealed And Lubed Track" acronym as been coined yet, at that time. But, maybe it was? The track rollers were all oil-filled as original equipment on the larger ACs. I DO know that a few companies were quite advanced in their track-chain designs. Cletrac had some pretty interesting pin and bushing arangements in their bigger machines.
