Are you swimming the carrier?
Does not seem like a show stopper if not... |

Try to get and old conveyor belt from local factory and cut it down
I probably have single a shroud but like as you I am close to having the same problem Maybe some old target vehicles still around out there. |

I have seen some out here in Manitoba at my favorite scrapyard. But I cannot say if they are for the M113 or a lynx.

I believe the lynx ones are 144" and the m113 are about 155" long we took ours off to do some track maintenance and while trying to use the track Jack's to put it back on like the manual says to do it ripped the rear out of the one side I guess 40 years of sitting in the sun made it shrink and brittle being rubber.

Tyson: if black rubber conveyor belt will work (as mentioned above), let me know. I can provide you with A length of 3/8” x 24” belt that you can cut to fit your needs.

Easiest thing is to just remove the other side and leave it at that. Unless you are swimming, they serve little purpose and just get in the way of your track maintenance. In my experience with them, we left the front plates on in order to use the foot hole to climb on, the remainder of the shrouds went out to the back compound somewhere.

Might have already sold, but Calgary's not such a big place and it's worth a try!
