[B]I have the remains of a carrier that was used for logging. It has had the springs replaced with pipes to keep the tracks on under load & it has hydraulic brakes. The driving position was moved to the rear like a buldozer. This worked well for the logger & eventually made him enough to buy a real skidder.
The down side of brake only steering is that at speed you can easily go out of control, particularly on a smooth surface.
