Possible Spare Tracks

[McLeod]

Hi guys, I've come across some things on the side of the tank in the game.
I think they may possibly be spare track links, what's your opinion?

[Tiger131]

yes they are spare track links..i had them on a dragon kit as seen in this photo




hope this helps bud

[McLeod]

yeah that's great thanks.
The kit has spare track links included but they are just mounted near the rear fender stacked verticaly rather than leaning up against the hull like yours, shouldn't be too much trouble to chaneg the position.

no problem buddy anytime

Actually, they're ice cleats guys.
They would take them off and bolt them onto the tracks for extra grip.

Here's what they look like when you actually use them.

well thank you for the heads up truly do learn something new everyday love this site

[McLeod]

Thanks Coen, I've learnt something else today

Although mine will have to make do with spare links as I have no ice cleats in the kit

I thought for years that they were extra... but weird tracks... I came across a book of how-to's for the T34 by Osprey and it showed them in use and POOF!... the sun came out.

Found some PE ice cleats, got them on order from Australia so they may take a while to get here.

Takes about 3 weeks for stuff to get here from NZ... I haven't ordered from Australia in a while so I can't remember... shouldn't be much longer though.

[bdr65]

Probably two weeks or there about's.

Well he said it was coming by airmail so I don't think it will be too long, not in any rush any way, as long as it comes before October lol
