  • Metal Track, what do you nuse to drive out the pins?

    need to add a link to the metal tracks, but nothing I have that's small enough to fit in the hole is hard enough to drive them out, what are people using?

    Hey!

    In my tanks spare track parts bag there was a metal rod, you should use that and hammer it in. Otherwise you could ask Motion for the spare links.

      Got any push pins laying around? Thumb tacks don't work as well as they bend really easily. Push pins don't bend quite as easily. You just need something to push it far enough to get it past the knurled end.

        A spare pin is the first thing i tried, it just bent, not that hard. However I did find a ridiculously small torx bit from a micro set, worked perfectly. Before and after pics...
