It looks like I'm forced to raise those damn return rollers to their correct positions afterall.

While running the PzIII with metal tracks (and lately Osketten) I could hear a 'ratcheting' noise that seemed to come and go depending on the track tightness. It was very annoying. Well it turns out that incorrect position of the 6 return roller mounts on this hull causes the tracks to rest on and eat away at the front and rear suspension mounts! This also happens with plastic tracks (unless they are tight) but is too quiet to notice. Metal tracks with any kind of (realistic) slack in them rest on these plastic mounts and eat them up.

Has anyone else noticed this? [:@]

It looks like I'm going to have to raise the damn things to their correct positions afterall and this is after I've painted the damn thing! The ausf. H and and the new Stug probably suffer from the same problem.
