Proper Metal Track Tension - with Pics?
Is it A or B?
a:
b:
track b has one less link section. Just trying to decide between too much and too little tension, since their isn't a track tension system available for the Abrams and TankArmy is out of stock with their.
thanks.

The correct tension is the one which stops the tracks coming off during turns. I would say the second one is best as MBT don't really have much slack and also once you put it on its tracks this will reduce tension too.

Ive settler at 80 pins connectors per track, so 160 links.
stock was 79 but these are Leopard2 A6 tracks.
also, has anyone else noticed that the location of the road wheel bolts are different in each side?
the right side road wheels are about 1/2" back.
whats happening is that it's almost pushing the right rear wheel into the sprocket.
will adjust after some trials
