After several meetings where the trak links broke, each link has a pair of small screws on both sides, 130 in total ;)

Great fix Kaczor :D especially for rough terrain as the tracks do seem to have a lot of side movement play which doesn't help with the stress on them. What size screws did you use ? may try it myself :thumbup:
