Re: Hello
Yay. Another recruit with modern tastes in tanks. Hello and welcome from Argyll and Bute, to the best form on tanks, I know of. Lots of very helpful people, with much skill. Did your tank arrive?
Re: Hello
Hi, Thank you for the welcome. I am from the Boston area. Got my tank have enjoyed learning to control it. I have a question about tensioning the Metal tracks on my HL Abrams. How do you get front wheel back on? I have used as much pressure as I dare. I will go look for the information in the forums. Best wishes

Re: Hello
Hello Rebel,
Can you give us some more details, of what you did? I presume you mean the very front wheel (the idler) which has the track tensioner behind it? The front wheel should push on over its axel stub.
Regards Ian

Re: Hello
If you have not already reattached the idler wheel, it may help us to see what might be the problem. The best means would be to post photos of both sides of the idler wheel and the spot where the idler wheel attaches. If posting photos puzzles you a bit, here are some instructions, a process easier than charging a battery:
1) If you're using the Quick Reply box, scroll down and click on the "Full Editor & Peview" button. (If you are already using the "Full Editor & Preview" function, go to the next step.
2) Scroll down from the text box and click the "Attachments" tab.
3) Click the "Add files" box.
4) Select the picture file from your computer. It's name will appear.
5) Click "Place inline"
It is easiest to insert the photos one at a time.
If the photo is too big, you will be alerted. You can resize it using Paint or a similar program.
