ABSTRACT:
A bottom guard arrangement for a track-type vehicle includes a front guard detachably secured to a longitudinally extending frame ahead of a hard bar extending between a pair of track assemblies, and a rear guard detachably secured to the frame rearwardly of the hard bar and spaced from the front guard. An intermediate guard has its forward end inserted into a transversely extending socket formed on the front guard, a plurality of holes extending therethrough at its rearward end, and a matching number of recessed pockets circumscribing the holes. A plurality of bolts individually extend through the holes of the intermediate guard for detachably securing the rearward end thereof to the rear guard with each of the bolts having its head disposed within the respective pocket. A shear block is welded to the rear guard at the rearward end of the intermediate guard for engagement with a force transmitting surface formed on the intermediate guard to transmit both rearwardly directed longitudinal forces and lateral forces applied to the intermediate guard directly to the rear guard.
