Snow Trac ST4 1971 cleats wanted

[thepaceline]

Hi,
anyone out there got some track cleats for sale. I need x8 standard cleats (ST7656)? I'm UK based but the Snow Trac is in French Alps.

 

[Snowtrac Nome]

are the 3 band tracks or 2 band tracks

Hi, 3 band tracks.

the easiest way to remove them is a grinder and cut the bolts. what did you drive over?

 

[thepaceline]

Yeah, I figured that out pretty quickly. A couple broke sliding off the transporter and the others on the very rocky track up to the house. Amazingly it got up there ok with 7 snapped cleats.

I'm planning to get then welded together. Any thoughts?

I think you would have better results getting some steel channel and cutting it to match the profile.

If you do get them welded, I would swap with other cleats so they are not together.

Thanks for the suggestion, makes good sense. More grinding & cutting!

I have welded my 2 ban grousers with good results.
