Abstract
An equalizer bar support assembly has an equalizer bar (14) mounted on a bearing (24) carried by a flanged bearing support (25) on a track roller frame (16). A support plate (98,150) is attached to one end portion of the flanged bearing support (25). In one embodiment, a bulkhead (100) having a ring portion (130) is bolted to the support plate (98) so that the ring portion (130) is wedged between a tapered outer circumference (120) of the support plate (98) and a contact surface (140) of a support member (78) of the track roller frame (16 ). The support plate (98) is firmly secured to the roller frame (16) and yet is readily removable therefrom. In another embodiment, the support plate (150) has a means (164) thereon to limit the axial movement of the support plate (150) relative to the roller frame (16) during the application of force to remove the support plate (150) from the track frame (16).
