Default Loyd

Just to explain. A Loyd carrier has a driving front axle with rear engine. they have brakes at both ends and so a sprocket is fitted at both ends. (if the track ran around a wheel, it would just slip when braking)
The second carrier has Aust pattern brake drums and actuators, also Aust steering wheel etc etc etc.
