Default RE: tamiya sherman track problem

kth:

Manual is on the way. Don't worry about copyright garbage, its long out of regs.

RRR can talk you thru the swap-over if you have any problems, but remember to put all the removed parts safely aside in case you want to restore her to 'classic' condition at a later date. Too many RT's show up missing the dual-drive gears... (most usually never bothered pulling the single gear to run it dual-drive)

If you can find a 53400 with its Sherman install parts, you'll only have to rig a servo inside the turret to elevate the gun. Beware of used 53400's, as most are missing the long brass studs that go in the turret, and the base-plate to mount it properly in the chassis. I have the plate, but I've misplaced my studs... and I wanted to put a 53400 in.

You have other problems, just ask.
