Re: Tank Treads

Its listed somewhere in this thread. They're green-blue, probably the same ones matt mentioned. They costed us $200 a piece. Another reason why belts have a tendency to rip is the tension on them. You really need to find your happy medium with them. If theyre too tight theyll rip and youll lose traction. If theyre too loose theyre can bind or crease/rip and youll loose traction. You gotta find the happy medium with them.
