Thank you for the compliment, but I only put it back together

Well I managed to get my tracks installed, but they are too tight with the 22" tires that came with them. I guess that explains why the tracks appear to be brand new and unused lol. I just ordered 6 new AT-101s and took a beating on the current exchange rate but it still ended up saving a few hundred dolars buying from south of the border. Luckily we've had pretty much no snow up to this point, I hope the tires are here soon

Anyway, here are pics of her with the tracks on. Just because everyone like pics

What brand are those tracks?

They look like late model factory Recreatives Max tracks.

No thank you Warren, if you hadn't have responded to my want to buy ad, we would not be having this much fun right now. Liam loves his "Argos" lol... if it has more than 4 tyres it's an Argo to him haha.

JP got it right. They are factory rubber tracks. They are modified Camoplast skidoo tracks with very nice cast aluminum track guides riveted on. My only gripe is they are continuous loop, there is no joint which makes installing them very difficult. There is a better picture of the tracks on the first page in post 4 of this thread.

These particular tracks came out of a bankrupt gold exploration outfit in Papua New Guinea, I picked the tracks and 6 tires with rims up for $1,000 and it only cost me $75 in shipping lol. It was too good of a deal to pass up even though they would not fit the Argo Vanguard I had. I bought the tracks with plans on modifying them to work on my Argo. Before I got started on that project I decided to try and find a used max IV for sale, Philipmax responded to my ad and here we are today

That's a great deal on those tires and tracks! Wow! And that's a cool story behind them too. Camoplast made the tracks for Recreatives and I must say, they work very well. MaxIVMark had them on his Max IV and that thing will go pretty much anywhere you point it.

New tires arrived today and I got my tracks on finally
