This is a long shot...but does anyone know where I can obtain one of these kits without ordering it directly from Azimut?
TIA
Dave.

The conversion sometimes shows up on eBay...but rarely.

It is really a shame that Azimut's customer service has gone down the toilet...ou toilette en Francais!

Maybe one day we'll see another TLAV conversion...perhaps from Legend Productions who would for sure do a crackin job on it.

It would be good if Legend produced their own version. Maybe a possibility following their recent Canadian M113 conversion?

I wish someone did the rubber track too, lobbied Azimut to sell it separately to no avail...

I don't think the BVM kit is still available but I have to call Azimut soon for something else and will ask them and report here.

Cheers,

Christophe

I hope they sell the rubber tracks and sprockets separately as well!
