The upper and lower hulls, idlers, return rollers, road wheels, sprockets and tracks--the whole suspension are the same as the M10. After three years, I am still adjusting the M10 to keep the tracks from jamming and a host of other problems. In general, the design is great, but the castings are a bit crude and of questionable metal. It pays to go over the castings for flash and to measure the sprockets especially to make sure they align well. I also used better lock washers (split washers) on the sprocket screws as well as some Locktite to keep them from slipping loose. Moreover, I had to add 3 mm of a greased nylon washer over the driveshafts from between the lower hull and the inside of one side's sprocket to make it align correctly and match the gap between the transmission housing and the sprocket on the other side.
