Title: Camoplast track on 550
Post by: BornagianKawi on November 05, 2017, 02:32:50 PM: Going to install a Camoplast track, Durasport, #9796t on a 550, question is, on adjuster wheels on the suspension in back, could I run 3, two outside, 1 in the middle, or 4 and adjust accordingly with spacers? What"s the recommendation?

Yes, mods on drives, I took a drive out of 340 Invader, drives fit perfect, located on shaft in right spot. 4.75 spread from center of drives. Two outside idler wheels, moved to outside of lugs, used 2 collar assy. to hold in place. Left pipe spacer between drives. Suspension will have to move idler wheels to run by lugs not on lugs.
