So I get a call from the brother this morning. He was finishing the installation of a used 2/3 cleated track into his 76 Cyclone.
He tells me that it won't turn, the center drive lugs are hitting the shock mount. I go: center drive lugs, are you kidding me? Dude, you have a DATOR track! :suprised:
He goes yeah, and it won't work with this sled!
The upshot is that he is willing to trade this track for a good used 2/3 cleated with 2 rows of drive lugs. Any takers?

OK, I'm funning you guys a bit. Dator tracks are full cleated and have a different drive lug pitch.
Rainville told me he's seen Cyclone / LF tracks both ways, and thought they interchanged.
The brother looked up the PN, and it came up as the replacement track for the sled.
