Terry that is amazing I am more than impressed I love the idea of the charging jack and switching!! you sir are a genius!! The idlers look like nothing i have ever seen before do they work well? and what sort of tension do they put on the track?

The tension is awesome,Daryl designed them so that if rocks or twigs get snarled they just roll right through without throwing the track or causing undue stress to the motors. Perfect correct tension at all times. I will know more when i throw her around the garden tomorrow (its like a swamp). They were a bargain too £35 inc delivery from the states. Must admit i pinched the idea of the charging socket from another website...it aint rocket science...just wiring

sorry,,,took ages to post thes...(been busy, getting tanks ready for spraying)
new vids here of new suspension (the clicking you hear is not sprocket slip, its the pins coming out and catching on the lower hull!!!! Took me ages to solve that one)
ANyway vids here 1. http://209.245.59.56/Gimme/16264721/283594606/90781325/C1976A02-9BDB-48E4-9144-7E9B71C292A9/0.499543/2/20March06TBALLG.AVI

Or goto MediaMax - Free Online Storage - Share Videos and Photos - Online MP3 Access to stream them.
Still a lot more to do, adjustment wise..but wow. I wont be buying anymore hop ups, as most of the stuff i have bought i could have made myself, so thats what i am going to do (thanks onewing, you got me thinking) All i need now is a supplier of really small nuts and bolts (m2 and lower). There is only so far you can go filing and grinding down big ones to the right scale.
