|  Mattracks
ive always wanted to have tracks beacause i think they're sweet. so i used 2 tamiya track and wheel kits and the tamiya universal plate set and made a prototype.    it has just over an inch of ground clearance from the bottom of the axle and it has a fairly wide wheel base as well. now i just need to make the track assemble rotate a bit so the tracks keep contact with the ground... |

Put a hearing in the top of the track mount behind the drivewheel. hang the whole assembly off the axle. You can use some delrin wheel wideners shaved down to use a 10mm id bearing to hang the track mount off of.. |
