Rubicon99 I know it's an old thread, and I don't know how I misplaced the return rollers for 6+ months, but they were in one of my drawers so I ended up fitting them since I had some time. Thanks again for the tips. BTW, the DKLMRC tracks were throwing on the Leo 2, but they seemed just fine on the HL Abrams.
BTW, the OP's problem & mine could actually be solved differently, the problem is that when the factory glued in the roller's shaft into the "pocket", there's either debris inside the pocket or the person simply didn't seat it home, hence the mounted roller extended slightly and the guide teeth ride on the roller. With some heat on the shaft, the shaft can be removed from the plastic housing and ground down from behind, reseat the shaft+roller and be done. But I like the practicality of the replacement.

Sorry to jump in on a track issue. I have question about new metal tracks on my HL M1A2 Pro. On first runs it seems the metal tracks are very slippery on cold grass. No dirt or mud, snow yet. Is this realistic action or is there something I can do to get more grip like rough up the tracks or just keep using them and they will get better traction as they get roughed up?

One good thing about low friction tracks. If you are just getting into the hobby, tracks that lose traction keep from passing stress on to the rest of the drive train. Not a bad thing when one is first getting used to running a model tank out doors.
