That was good to know about the transmission being the same parts as a WC .My Friend Jim Debock has his track pads all drilled and his pins ready to put back in .If you take the pins out be sure and save the cast washers to use again George

George my carrier had area's of red paint too like a dull not quite crimson red... saying that they were very close together on the line (spitting distance) who knows i love the fact you have a carrier with numbers so close to mine
