    Question ATV Hub Mount Tracks on AATV?

    If you found tracks with the right dimensions to fit wheel spacing on an Argo or other AATV, do you think bolt on track kits might work?

    I've seen them on ATV's and UTV's and they offer great performance. I don't know how they would swim but I'm sure they would be awesome on swamp/muskeg type terrain.

    Something like this:

    The track kit you linked to would not work on out tires without modifications. I am pretty sure there is a guid built into the tracks the rollers run on. If you look at pictures of aatv tracks they come up the sides of the tires or have a guide that comes up the side of the tire, or like the amphicat tracks use chain and tapered pieces of conveyor belt. You would be better of buying tracks designed for your machine than going with the tracks you linked to. There could be some better alternatives out there, but the gudes need to be set up right.
    l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!

    Yeah, those aren't really set up for skid steering.

    I can't find any good reason to go with a (very narrow) ATV track system.

    the argo plastic tracks are everywhere (I even have a 18" set for sale) and it's easy to make a rubber track set; I'm currently making one with 3 polaris 15x133x1.5" used tracks for my Max IV.

    Thanks for the input every one. I saw some on an UTV and thought it would help with clearance.
