Hi Guys,

Thanks for all of the "high 5's". To answer Richard's question, we needed to make sure that the tracks were tensioned properly and that the linkages were snug. Otherwise, the carrier drives like a charm and the suspension is wonderful. We are always mindful to keep listening for a broken track pin and we don't have any plans for taking it "airborne". As well, with the track tensioned, we aren't noticing "checking" of the rear drive tires either.

With regards to Iain, he and his friends are the future generation of restorers. They need to get bitten by the restoring bug now. They are the individuals (that are not only going to be lifting us in and out of the carrier when we are 85 or 90) that will be caring for the restored "beasts" long after we are gone.

Cheers, Richard Hatkoski
