I then painted the wheels and the lower hull and suspension arms. After the paint was thoroughly dry I installed the wheelswith the rubber tires and then the tracks.

As I did with my Panther, to keep the gearbox grease from slinging about, I made a motor/gearbox cover out of two pieces ofsheet plastic taped together, cut out holes for the wiring. I left the upper sides open to allow the heat from the motors toescape and keep the motors cooler.
