Hi guys !

Can I use Tamyia's T-55 tracks on a T-62 Mod.1962 ?

Unfortunately you can't. Even if the type is the same, as the T-62 hull is longer than the T-55 one, the Tamiya tracks will be too short.

Merci Olivier !!!

I wanted to use the Trumpeter tracks on a turret extra armour set, like this



I'll do a regular T-62 then.. still cleaning every single link, the lower hull is done but before putting the fenders I'll have to work these tracks..
