Link to Etoarmor site for Jagdpanther parts. https://etoarmor.com/?product_cat=jagdpanther

I've got 2 of the trunnion kits in stock. Daryl won't build any more until fall, he's buried with work as it is. The idler system is,while not problematical, not the best. The HennTec system solves all the problems and slop in the adjustment and use category. Then of course there is the Eto transmission system, smooth as glass and durable.

That trunnion is sweet and solid plus the HennTec is a must (not to mention a breeze to install), especially since the Panther & JP arms are so weak.

I need to finish mine before I go all out on the Sheridan. (I spent WAY too much time on the details)

I would go Henntech but I just don't drive my tanks that much at all.

I did however begin a large order for all the Schumo parts from ETOARMOR that I mentioned in my video. (paying into Robert's vacation fund at this point LOL)
