Just like to ask if the MATO metal suspension units/wheels will fit the Heng Long Sherman. Brian...

Hi Fynsdad,
I guessed that to fit them is a lot of bother?. Have you fitted them at all. Because I know you build a lot of Shermans . Any info about fitment would be great!. Brian...

I would be very interested in a how-to for this as I have this mod planned as an interim until I can get hold of the HVSS.

Good idea that might do that thanks. Brian...

you can do it but its not easy and a lot of work is involved and depends on how meticulous you are ........wot wot

Very Meticulous Mr CH . Brian...

brizo,

I did that to my Firefly (A HL Sherman mated to the Mato metal suspension). It is not too bad, just a lot of epoxy. Worked out fine and it is one of my better battlers. The only problem I had was that the Mato boggies are ever so slightly bigger than the HL ones, and the HL metal track teeth spacing is a little tight on them and also needed to add an extra link or two for the length.

I was thinking of getting the mato units putting them on my Mato Sherman and putting the plastic wheels with rubber tyres on the HL SHERMAN what do you think!!!!. Brian...
