I bet some folks in buffalo right now would like a good set of snow tracks for there Argos. More snow then they can handle.
The only way we are going to get something different for tracks is to show there is a need. There has to be a market for a good track system for snow.. If you are happy with the status quo then why are we all trying to modify what we have?
If I had a good shop you are dam right I would be building a good aluminium frame to just bolt on the existing axles. With some sort of track system on that. You can take the ATV track system but make it the full length of the Argo Front axle drives is and the other axles are used as support. I would not be overly concerned about a suspension system, because the snow is a lot softer then the hard ground.
Oh maybe if I win the lotto then I could start doing some real experimenting.
Yes I am very Happy with the channel track. They right up there, top the line in a tracks system but so are the Adair and escargot tracks. They are all right up there, top of the line like All season tires. Do you get my point.
You already have the machine. ( the older ones are a little under powered) The new units are fine. Now we just need a good winter track. If you go too wide with the existing track system its to hard on the axles. Unless you have extensions on all axles .
