Hello I’ve been training for a new job and been outbof the site. I have two questions what type of track do I put on a M981, M113 variant and are there any recommendations for a good company that makes the after market ones. And does anybody have any good pictures of the mounting for the ramp on the 113s.
Standard M113 family uses T130 track. The newer ones seen on M113 family vehicles, since the late 2000-teens, are T150 track.
There are a bunch of options for T130 tracks. AFV Club does nice indi-links.
Fat Frog does 3D printed T150s, along with the new sprockets to fit them onto.
A good guide for US track.
M113 rear ramp hinges.
Perfect and thank you as always for your reliable and accurate support
Def Model has also released two sets of 3D printed click together workable tracks; one set with regular pads, one set with worn pads. I don’t have them, but I expect they should be pretty good.

My recent experience with the Def M113 tracks is that they do not stay together.
I have a follow-on two-part question first I can’t seem to find the fat frog tracks anywhere where is a good place to look? Second what online stores are us based and being used by you guys?
HobbyEasy has the Fat Frog M113 tracks in stock.
For online US stores , the big 3 are Sprue Brothers, Andy’s Hobby Headquarters, and Scalehobbyist.
Amazing and thank you
