My Sad Sprockets

[shaun]

Those are the same sprockets i have on my MK2 * - i have the same on one of my spare axles as well. Yours sprockets are not that worn, they came out of the factory with fairly narrow teethon that pattern sprocket. also the general rule is that one pair of sprockets will last two sets of tracks (im sure thats in one of the manuels as well)

Carrier Community,
I ground the paint off and the number reads Ford 44 CTL 3626-F. Thanks for the opinions Shaun and Richard.

well al be....... 3626F is the replacement sprocket.. it appears there were 4 prior types A - F how did i miss that the first time.... it is not listed on the exploded diagram i have but is listed in the FUC-03 page 8 right there in black and white !..


so to sum up it is a late production sprocket and was to be used once all the other (ABCDE) had been depleated it is a carrier sprocket designed for use on the universal Mk1* and Mk2* so I was right all along when i said "I am known for being incorrect"

Interesting, does that point to Vivian being right all along
The track did need better guidence than the flat sprocket gave! Once I get back to England I'll post a photo of a REALLY shot sprocket, these shown are in good usable condition as far as I can see.

Good morning/afternoon/evening, I know its a bit late, but Just to say it is not from a vickers light tank.

That sprocket is not the right one for the Vickers Light tank,(Mk6A) because its an Aussie sprocket, isn't it?
Those ones in that fence look about right.
My observations are that you tank should be running Aussie track (with heads on the pins (Vickers tank specific), not lead plugged)with wide wheels(same as Aussie wheels) that have flat spokes(same as British/ Canadian universal carriers)
