To save some time, I'll link to a picture thread of the build parts of the 16.00s on the rear axle here.

this is how they attach.

And a couple of them on the rear most axle. If this works, then I will put them on the front driver as well.

Then I bought an extra pair of 14.00s for the front of my other 931 that I have tracks on the back of. I was just out with this rig yesturday and will be again today. It works so good. I hope to get some video of it, but not sure if it will happen.

These duals use a spacer I had made for another application a few years ago. Same basic principle, I used budd wheel thinbles to attach the inner wheel to the axle hub, then out budd nuts to attach the spacer. I still ahve the run flats inside, but hope to remove them before next spring. Running about 5psi in the outside tires and 8-10 inside. Even drives down the road well at 35 or so. That's fast enough for what I'm doing and the track belts on the rear.

Later this week I hope to get the 16.00s out and see if it works. May even have to try duals on the front of that one.;-)

Thanks for looking.

This is a sweet looking setup! How are the tracks tensioned? Just curious if he has a non drive axle that slides they look snug.
The rear most axle has a turnbuckle on each side and slipper springs. So tension is pretty easy. Release the tension and remove the outside set of tires, and the tracks are easily removed and installed.
