seriously though how much does a gallon of gas weigh? You are carrying more than you ususally see when people test their argos with these tracks.
Now honestly, you were stuck with an old conquest. Not that that's a bad machine but maybe a New Frontier with 18.5 wide high floatation tracks on top of 25s would be in order if you plan to carry that much weight.

I think I do test these tracks more than the average person, and put a ton of stress on them. At about 30hrs I already had to pull a full link out to keep them mounted, and now on my way out this last trip, I almost walked out of one track again. I will probably have to pull at least a half link out to get them tightened back up.
Oh, 7.3lbs per IMP Gallon of gas, so I had about 540lbs load in just extra fuel.
In that 3 week trip, I burned about 625 liters (a bit over 1000lbs) of fuel, not including what I put through the trucks.
Originally posted by kghills View PostI think gas is 6.6lbs per gallon.

Keith..
I am running the 18.5" Tracks right now, but my next set that I have ordered will be 14.5". I agree that the extra floatation helps in this kind of mess, but they are a Biatch trying to fit through some of the trails
