hey dave what would it take to switch the sprocketsover to segmented ?

[dieseldave71]

Pull the sprockets and press on the ones that take segments, or cut the rims off the existing ones and weld on the ring that accepts the segments. I never converted a D9 but I did the D6 in my other vids.

Nice video. Does anyone know what was the first year they made them?

[dieseldave71]

1955 was the first year of production for the D9
