I've had mine up to 55mph the military has had them up to 65mph with out any problems. The cost new is about 26Gs used ones can be found for as low as 5Gs or so. If you want a set let me know I am working on becoming a dealer. |

They bolt right on to the studs that your wheels go on. You can change back and fourth in about 45min with hand tools. Its not permanent.

Tanks  (I mean thanks) The tracks can not flip they have limiting linkages on them if you look at the 2nd pic (side veiw of my truck) you can see part of a yellow arm sticking out and up in front of the track. |

no the tracks gear the truck down. It slows you down and gives you more power. For example if your speedo is reading 30mph your going 20mph |

I have never been stuck with them. check out the manufacters web site http://www.mattracks.com yes I got them to start a business selling them and using the to transport stuff. Its not doing so well yet. If you would like a set the prices are on the web site, but please contact me to get them I can also get used sets. |

They are made to go on stock (no mods needed). Your one wheel wonder doesn't change a thing they give you so much traction you wouldn't believe it. The part of the tracks that touch the ground are 16" wide and about 45" long. I've been hill climbing and been in full control, able to stop and start anywhere on the hill I want, going up or down.

Mattracks has been around for quite a while...I'm surprised you guys haven't seen them before...they're out of Minnesota. On the spendy side....and you better not have any weight concerns. They are heavy units.
