Looking at the overall axle width I’d actually say that whole assembly is from a post war Loyd crawler tractor.

Just checked some photos of Loyd crawler tractors and the body work on them does look the same as what I had to remove from the axle.
The fuel tank on those is the same as the ones I have seen there as well. Wondering now if there is any demand for them to restore the tractors, rather than me pulling it apart for spares. It would be a shame to destroy something that's valuable to someone. Casting numbers on the part that the sprocket bolts to appear to be BS600 and 1945

Not physically in front of it at the moment but can confirm the tooth count in a few days.
The only pic I have is not clear but it is around 35 teeth same as a carrier.

Sprocket is a 35 tooth, so will work for the Brit carrier.
After 3600 + km of traveling back and forward this past week ferrying trailer loads of parts everything from out west is back at my place. The LP2A will be the focus of my effort initially. First step is to clean out around 50kg of dirt from the floor. 20181108_144032.jpg 20181110_124726.jpg After cleaned and washed out 20181110_150629.jpg 20181110_150640.jpg Need lots of parts so if anyone has bits for sale in Australia please let me know. I will put a WTB ad in the correct forum with a list.

Sadly nearly all of the suspension units have been cut to bits and mounted on various conveyor and rotator drums at the opal mine over the past 50 years.
20181106_071434.jpg So I will either need them from other vehicles or will have to reproduce the trailing arms and pivot lugs. I did get a lot of track. Most all of it is Australian. Only had a little bit of Brit track left because it was used as drive chain on equipment which you can see in the rotator pic. 20181107_070138.jpg
