Excellent pics, Keith!

As for these grousers...


...there was a set up for auction at eBay very recently!

Quote:
The item up for auction is a full set of tracks for a WWII military 6X6. The trade name "Tyr Trac" is on each one along with the manufacturer, "Galanot-Watson, Alliance, Ohio" and the part or casting number "T1342". The owner got them from his uncle who bought them as surplus many years ago. He installed them one time and then stored them away. There are 17 track blocks for each side of the truck. Each track block is approximately 15 X 7 ¾ inches. The chain connectors are male and female on each end of the block. There is a large bolt that is accessed on the grouser side of the block. This bolt moves the connecting chain up or down inside the triangular shaped center guide allowing for adjustment at each block. The guides ride between the dual wheels. Each block weighs 17 lbs.
