Excavator Travel Devices

John Deere Excavator Travel Devices

VI Equipment supplies travel devices and related drive components for John Deere excavators. A travel device helps transfer power through the drivetrain so the tracks can move the machine. Depending on the model, the quoted assembly may include a hydraulic motor, reduction gearbox or a more complete drive unit.

If an excavator travels slowly, pulls to one side, loses power under load or leaks around the drive, the travel system should be diagnosed before ordering a replacement. Similar symptoms can come from hydraulics, brakes, motors or gears.
