I need to remove the left track on my HD11. Is there a master link on the track and if so what am I looking for. What kind of a job (besides being heavy) is this going to be?

two types of track , one with a master pin which should have a mark on end -circle or O with pin prick in center or a slight taper and a little longer than rest of pins. master link also has a shorter bushing and on inside of track link are washer and shims to take up space of shorter bushing .

Other is a split link that the track bolts hold together and which has teeth that interlock to create a strong joint. On this type the track plate is removed and link splits in half. Bushings are same length in all links.
