Thanks Chris, John and Richard.
...
Quoted TextI got that kit in my stash too, with AFV Club M-41 rollers and tracks sets.
Remember ... there is an extra roadwheel on this extended chasis ... so one AFV club set is not enough for the wheels. You´ll need two "one length vinyl" tracks but one set of indy tracks will work.
Im a bit tied up at the moment ... but an upcoming project will be Tamiya´s old duster. I have the AFV club wheel set, so will have the Tamiya wheels as spares. If you want some of these wheels .. let me know!
Nice of you Frank. I should've written I bought 2 sets of M-41 wheels AWA 2 sets of M41 tracks. BTW thanks for your proposal.

The M8 was not normally be towing an M115 8 inch. It was designed for and would have been a M114 155mm towed howitzer.
The M8 was not designed to handle anything as big as the M115 or M59.
Rounds Complete!!
Mike, this one shows the USAREUR used it to tow the 8" M115. Most of the tractors designed to tow the Long Tom also did
