Very nice Dave, you have done a very nice job. How come you decided to join the track at the front? It's traditionally done between the sprocket and the back bogie wheel.

You mean I broke tradition
 I just found it easy to pull them from the back and there is lots of room to pull them together up front

Much easier to join the track at the front Lynn, you should give it a try buddy.
That said, when Jnr and I are track bashing, he usually jumps in and acts as brake man for me, I then pull the track onto the sprocket and walk the hub with my feet, when it's fairly tight Jnr presses the brake and holds the track firm whilst I set up my ratchet strap to give it the last sinch... Works a treat,

Easier is in the mind of the beholder
I join my tracks at the back by myself without a jack, straps etc. just using the sprocket just a rope to lift it over the idler then sit it on the sprocket, turn ,slid in pin, all done ! get in and drive
