Seen your speaker, best go to Jaycar and try for another type of speaker
They have several options.
It may bring out the best options for sound set

maybe after I upgrade the electronics to a Clark tk22, which will probably be after the tracks and henntech idler....lol

Wow...was showing my housemate how far the BBs shoot and surprised myself!! First round went where I expected it to go (about 25feet or so..) second round (at same elevation) went over the 7 foot fence and dissappeared into next doors backyard!!! maybe landing 50+ feet away....

Second round always seems to go much further than the first!!

Ordered the metal tracks earlier this week from Tankarmy here in Oz.....waitin impatiently for them to arrive now

yippppeee.... track's are here Just taking a couple of links out so they are a better fit. Pixs soon!

If its creating 'wear' then you need to slow the process down a wee bit

Glad you've got the tracks mate, they will make a difference to the way it sits for sure.

Thanks lads!!

Tracks are on...took 2 links out of each, but when turning during a test run (without the top on)the tracks migrate off the sprocket!

Took another link out and they are nice and tight on the sprocket but tends to pull the first and last road wheel up!! Hopefully it will settle down on its suspension a bit too plus still need to get the track tension kit for it.....

Doesn't that usually help with those wheels wanting to be pulled up, especially with the weight of metal tracks?

Mick.

Yup suspension is all upgraded might need to change the springs around to the other hole....its my first tank so uncharted waters

I'm no expert, but to my eyes, the track looks too tight in the last photo. Maybe it will stretch a bit and settle down once it's run in. On the other hand, it could put a strain on the sprocket and idler bearings.
