I have no idea really. The last thing I want to do is start another myth, because there are enough of them around already. What I believe, is that the Vickers light tank had wide track/wheels, and when Australia decided to build LP1 carriers, they adopted that option, and stuck with it. I guess the lead plug, has to be an Aust. idea. Maybe someone has the info to confirm or reject it. Maybe it was a Vickers Carden Loyd initiative. The only Vickers Light Tank, that I have seen in the flesh is the one in Pucka
