Tank tracks are a whole different animal than dozer/ excavator tracks. Did a few of those on Madil and Koering line machines mounted on tank chassis.  Requires a special clamp made specifically for tank tracks, no hydraulic pin press.  Those I did were not press fit. Once the keepers were pulled and the track clamp installed a hammer and a punch were all that was needed.

Makes me wonder less how those bulldozer or tank tracks are serviced.
