[EDIT - added kit #]

Nick,

I have a DML T-80 kit (#3506) that I’m willing to trade the Link & Length tracks for your Tiger Model T-90 Indi Link tracks.

Please let me know if you’re interested (pm or email to ltcjanelson AT att DOT net ).

Happy modeling!

I think it's safe to assume the old DML T-80 tracks will not fit the Tiger kit, they don't even fit the DML kit without some work !

Are you sure that T-64 and T-80 have the same track? They might both be double pin but I don’t think the track is the same. The guide horns and track pad both look different although I haven’t measured either. I know even less about T-90 but it’s design looks different to both of the others.

Hi;

FYI; The tracks for the T-64 are different and will not fit T-80s or 90s; The Double Pin tracks will work, you just need to make sure that you have the correct Drive Sprocket !! Also you mite want to look at Trumpeter and see if there tracks will work, also Meng tracks are available, IMHO the Trumpeter would be the Best choice as there Workable set are easy and just click together !!

CHEERS; MIKE.

Hi;

"Yes":--Trumpeter sells all there track sets separately, just remember to order the Workable set. Also remember that the Double Pin type has to have the correct Drive Sprocket ! All you have to do is go to ebay and type in the item in the search box, and you should get A list of sellers ! And if I recall, they should be around 20.00$ !
A Good source is Lots of Models, Free Times Hobby's, Etc; !!!

GOOD LUCK; MIKE.
