These are the swining link transmission cases that take drive down to the rear road wheels when driving without tracks. Im not bothering with fitting the gear train inside as the model is never going to be driven sans tracks.

Re: Soviet BT-5
I would just like to repeat my thanks to "Jee" on this forum who kindly provided me lots of detailed information that has assisted me greatly with this build.
Re: Soviet BT-5
Hi Mike, you are welcome, don't worry, I am absolutely enjoying your build and the fact I have helped a little bit is great!
I think I found another book but it is about all BT tanks, you want that too?

Re: Soviet BT-5
That's excellent information. thankyou Jaap.
I was struggling to work out how the top end of the suspension units were attached.
I can see how it's done now.

Re: Soviet BT-5
Ive done a bit more work . You can see how the front wheels were steered. The tank had rack and pinion steering on the front wheels.
