"will not/can not" should be interesting to see on that one. Personally, I'm not sure which I would want one big track or a track I can take apart. Something to think about. Later 42rocker

Lighter???? Looks like one heck of a lot less steel.... Way to go! Good Luck. Stay Safe Later 42rocker

I also say THANK YOU for sharing. Stay Safe Everyone. Later 42rocker

Ok, park then paint. I've done that on many projects. That way if paint gets scratched then protective park is under it. After all, how could a track grouser get scratched.... Later 42rocker

Can't wait to see more. Go Patrick Go!!!! I'm at that stage. Somewhat, have all of the grousers stripped and ready to clean. Guess I need to start in with the wire wheel next. Was thinking about parking after that, but your painting with that flex seal is an interesting idea. Like I said GO PATRICK!!!! Stay Safe Everyone. Later 42rocker

That said try to find out as MUCH history as possible on the Weasel you are thinking about buying.... You might not know if that "Weasel" did it or not. Sorry could not help it. Being a member here and reviewing as much as you can is your best thing. Might even be a lot better than vehicle history report.... Stay Safe Everyone. Later 42rocker

Not long ago I started grinding apart another set of tracks (Thanks again Patrick for that back up set). So, Thursday started pulling the cut bolt heads from the bands. In this tracks cases the best part is belting that can be used on another set. Like I said to you grinding and cutting the nuts off, I believe is the fastest way to get French style track apart. As I recall less time than using a 18mm socket and 19.5 inch long 1/2inch drive rachet. No matter, how you do it ---- it's a PAIN!!!! Stay Safe Everyone.

Wow, that's some hitch setup. Stay Safe Everyone. Later 42rocker

Took two complete tracks apart last Nov/Dec. It's a pain. Harder to remove the rubber so you can recycle the steel chain pieces. Ending up with 300 pounds of steel scrap. Wow at 10 cents a pound (it's up) $30.00. Not worth it but. Patrick Good Luck Stay Safe Everyone Later 42rocker

Nice fresh snow and you are running your Weasel on it. Great!!! Enjoy and have fun. Later 42rocker

Nice Very Nice! Stay Safe Later 42rocker

Those parts were not brass in my French tracks. They were steel. I took all of them apart and then scrapped them. Good Luck and Good Work. Stay Safe Later 42rocker

Thats very interesting. Looking forward to hearing how it goes. Stay Safe Later 42rocker
