Track issues

Post by Jimbo Mills »

Hi all, I'm having issues with the tracks catching on the screws that mount the fuel can brackets on the arches and also the front side skirt screws. I cant see any way of moving the wheel arrangement to enable the tracks top run without catching these screws. Any ideas?

Hi, I had the same issue but found I could use a small, Dremel mounted cutting disc to remove the excess bolts as close to the nuts as possible. This gave just enough room for silent running! :D Phil

Me too. Cut the end of the bolts off.

Thanks Phil/Graham
I did think about that but I thought I may have done something wrong.
