| How big would you like them to be and how big is your wallet? I looked for a while I was gonna use them on the RCCAV, but my wallet wasn't deep enough. |

| Thats the problem I am having! The ones I did find are 500 bucks! I may just buy a tracked snowblower off Craigslist for that much... I need some other parts off of one anyway. |

Yeah, I found them but the surplus snow thrower tracks they had were sold out... The other ones are too small. They do have a bunch of cool parts though. The platforms seem like an easy way in but 5K!!!  | |

| Check with your local lawn mower repair shop. They have listings of parts for snow blowers. If not them then try/search MTD Products, they make several brands of lawn equipment. |
