In my max, I like to run it without the floor in it so I can watch the sprocket alignment via the chain travel.

Listen close for anything that doesn't sound quite right.

Just a thought Curtis, if you find a cheap set of plastic tracks for a six wheel with the same size tires , i've seen pictures of guys running them on eight wheelers only covering four or six of the wheels. Might be an option for you to play in the snow if you happen to come across a cheap set.
Btw, the ol' girl is looking good mate ! Good work.
