    Nice shocks. I went to the junk yard and ripped off a couple of air shocks from minivans. The front tensioners I know need to be under constant pushing pressure to take up the slack of the tracks. And also found out it will only take the slack up from the drive sprocket, up over the idler/tensioner wheel, and down to the first ground wheel that makes contact with the ground. So for example, driving with all the ground wheels on the ground, the tensioner will take up slack to the front ground wheel. If you are pulling a wheelie and the only ground wheels on the ground are the back set of bogie wheels and the first 2 sets of bogies are in the air then the tensioner will take the slack up on the bogies that are in the air and will stop at the first bogie wheel on the ground. LOL. A little insight fer ya. Backing up is not as extreme as what you was describing it. If the track does slack coming down off the sprockets, they will just roll under the wheels with no problem because of the track guides. no worries there. The suspension, you was worried about the twisting of the arms. Only problem I see where it will twist would be from where the shock mounts to the arm on the bottom there, over to the bogie arm. It would help to move the shock mount over to the pivot on the bogie arm to help with the twisting force, but you may have an issue with the shock hitting the tracks then. I made A-frames for my setup so wouldn't have to worrie about the twisting issue.

    Super excited to see what you do! I made a little tracked vehicle using lawnmower parts and just braked each side of the diff it doesn’t work well as you say the speed doubles on the unbraked side really labouring the engine. Your design will work great, but why have a heavy diff and weld it when you can just run a chain and sprocket?

    I think your gonna have to weld the diff though. Just unhooking one track from power will handle most of the steering job especially at any kind of speed. The outer brake you have yet to put on will only need to be applied for slow pivot type turns. Im glad your not just individually braking each side of an open diff. They don't seem to turn very good that way and when they start spinning they sometimes peg leg and only spin one track. For you I don't think that flys.
