These tracks inspired by ski resort hill cats are a great add-on to your four-wheeler. They have three pneumatic wheels in each track that make the ride smoother on hard packed surface. Teeth rattling ride on the hard surfaces has always been a problem for me and the use of the inflated tires solved the problem. After installing these beasts you can go over snow without any problems and hauling firewood is made possible during the period of great snowfall.

Note that the blueprints do not contain the CNC-files below!
Allthough printable .pdf blueprints will provide you the need-to-know information to get your tracks project started and finished you'll have extra support with CAD (.dxf) files for the CNC service which you might need to use for the drive sprockets (with 110x4 bolt pattern - easily convertible to other patterns by CNC machinists) and the main axle flanges if you're not familiar with any drawing software.
Keep in mind that this design is outdated and is not included in the .pdf blueprints (look for the newer design below).

Edited on March 21. 2016:
I finally re-designed and fabricated new sprockets for the tracks. I personally think these sprockets look better and what's most important - they are much lighter. I hacked off a lot of steel and got to a final weight of 4,89 kg instead of 8,2 kg per sprocket. One side of the sprocket also has pre-cut holes in it to ease the welding process while welding two sides of the sprockets together. This .dxf file also includes the main axle flange.
