The way I drive the three “Henntek” idlers have never held proper tension and caused me more issues then they solved. They work great for people with less aggressive driving styles though.

This M41 was a 10 year old tank when I bought it. I then stripped it, replaced the electronics and upgraded the tracks/sprockets. It took three years of abuse and stressing the stock idler to finally break it. Breaking the idler on a 13 year old tank did not surprise me. Fully expected it to happen sooner. The fix I did continues to hold strong almost a year and half later. This M41 is still driven hard and battled often.
