Note: these images are from the British version but are the same for the US version other
than the tow shackles which are the simpler single hole type for the US version
Basic lower hull Interior.
Basic suspension added to the hull
Holes in the hull sides that needs to be filled before attaching the suspension bogies
1 on the left and 2 on the right hull sides.
Drive sprocket detail and cut-outs in the hub.
Idler and suspension bogie detail, the one piece idler wheel is a superb piece of moulding with only fine mould lines to be lightly sanded.
Modifications to the drive sprocket by adding a central pin from 1.6mm plastic rod which is inserted into a corresponding holes drilled through the final drive housing for a very robust fit also allowing the sprocket to rotate freely.
Note: this is an optional modification and the kit sprockets will assemble as per instructions, I simply made this alteration to
make fitting the sprockets easier and for a more robust attachment, it's up to the individual if they wish to follow suit.
