OK, I am baffled... anyone know where I can get instructions for these tracks? I have no clue how to put them together...

I have not seen their tracks for this model. I put together tracks for a T-34.
With my set you took the links and cleaned them up. Then seperated the two diffferent types, which I split again for the left and right tracks (equal number of both types for each side). Then I took one of each and laid them on the construction aid that was included. I lined up the two links and then pressed the small "spike" into each side of the junction of the links, pinning the two tracks together. I applied a small bit of super glue on the outside of the track where the spike enters the link. The spike had a piece of sprue sticking out of the bottom making it look like a spear. I left this attached until the "gap filling" super clue cured.
I had all kinds of trouble with the left side coming apart but by the time I got to the right side I was doing a better job and the links stayed together.
They looked fine on th emodel but I am not sure I would use them again
