Anyone have a good detail photo of a Panzer IV ausf E drive sprocket?
I just ordered the old Dragon 6264 kit and I know the outer bolts need relocating on the drive sprocket.
Plus are there any other fixers that I might not know about?

Regards
Karl

What about this one ?



Full size

According to the caption, the one below is a Ausf G, but the sprocket looks to be the same (Disclaimer : I'm no Panzer expert )

Hi Karl

Go to the review of the 6301 Vorpanzer kit version of the Ausf E on PMMS. Terry shows you all the fixes that were done to the old kit, plus he shows you the old 6264 kit sprocket parts against the corrected ones:

If you are lucky, you may get an updated 6264 kit where some of the changes were made already in the re-release.

Just found a better view of the sprocket :

Brilliant

I have found more errors after reading some forum post and reviews.
I got the kit quite cheap so am more concerned about the drive wheel height more than anything.

Peter that's what I was thinking as the kit came out in 2005 and I did purchase it on release but was not aware of the errors back then.

Frenchy your last picture link is just what I was looking for thanks

I shall do a build log when I make a start,just need to gather some references and fixers first.
