Impact tracks

Post by Jake79 »

Hi Guy's

I'm considering purchasing a set of the T66 tracks below for a Sherman I have..I'd like to know if the sprockets that come with the tracks will fit the drive shafts of the basic henglong steel gears..

Cheers

Hi Jake , Impact stuff is designed for Tamiya , so I doubt that they will match - but if the shafts are 8mm dia. and the same length , you would only need to add another 'flat' to them . B.
to the bouncy room ! Yay !

If it's a pretty standard HL Sherman the t66's won't fit as they are for Hvss suspension...
remember...it's just a plastic tank... :/
