Is the track width correct?
Has anyone out there done this?
Thank you,
Zeke | | |

Where on an AD truck the width is only about half an inch off on each side, on the Task Force trucks its quite a bit different.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | |

Looks like I'll be saving up for a fatman's m2 unit or staying stock.
