Found this on the web while looking for some other information. Can anyone confirm if this is true?

I managed to put on the the tracks with the chevrons going forward and backwards, and in the same direction.

Yes it's correct.

As far as I am aware the very early Tigers did have separate left and right hand tracks but the right hand links were dropped quickly for logistical reasons.

STHV is correct. Here is a link to the Tiger I bible:

Look for section 3.4.1.12 on page 75 that discusses this change around October 1942.

Thank you both. Looks like I will have to reverse my previous work.
