Hi guys, I received my M113A1 Vietnam version by Academy today. Kit looks nice, but...bummer! Both the sprocket wheels, (part A2), are mis-moulded, and completely useless.
Is there anyone out there, who made a conversion or so, who has one or even better two of them left?
Hoping you can help, John.

John,

I have some "recycled" (taken from built models, paint removed) sprockets from Tamiya and Italeri kits. If you don't find Academy parts, I can send you a pair of those I have.

Regards,
Pawel

I'm sure I've got a some spares because some of my M113s will get Diehl sprockets.

And if ya want ta go the expensive route, Friulmodelismo makes a great set of workable link-to-link aftermarket tracks which, like all of their sets, comes with two new sprocket wheels.

Pricey, but they look fantastic!

Aloha,

Johnny B.

I have the Tamiya M113 ACAV kit and am not planing on using any parts below the driver's seat...if you want em...let me know...freebie
