Not a bad concept.
My worry would be with the smaller wheels not supporting the top span of the track, which will result in a lot of sag.
Depending on the width of the track this could be an issue.
Which machine ??? Imp, Spryte ???
Adding carrier wheels on top would stop the issue of track sag.
Overall, the original design is a good balance of stability, ride quality and dependable function.
Does your machine have a blade up front ??
What engine ??
The original torsion axles were not a bad design, but there are alternatives.
Flexiride makes a sweet setup of either full axles or half axle sets that are available in various weight ratings.
The front axle on most machines, especially if it has a blade have a higher weight capacity to carry the blade.
The center axles are softer to give a decent (Subjective term) ride quality.
Another thing to consider is the condition of the rubber torsion sections of your axles.
How old is the machine ??
The rubber units degrade over time as well as the quality of the ride goes south too.
New complete factory axles are not cheap and if one side fails it is a fresh axle to fix it.
Several folks have retrofitted the aftermarket Flexiride units or others to replace worn out factory axles.
Derailing tracks is always a worry and when you change things in the undercarriage away from original. There is always a possibility of issues with a tracked rig, butttttttttttttttt ?????
Personally I don't think the walking beam is going to really do much for the seat of the pants feel.
On anything but soft fluffy fresh snow these rigs are not a Cadillac by any means.
More info on your rig may help answer things, and others will no doubt chime in.
