Roadwheels 102 - T-34
Simple Roadwheels Conversion


Do you know you can make creative conversions by simply moving the roadwheels around on our T-34/76 kit? Simly use a fine hobby saw or a sharp hobby knife to cut from the back of the tracks and remove the wheels you wanted to replace.

Look at the results we have shown you here...

And you can add the wheel style from the T-34 / 85 as well . I've seen pictures of T-34s with 3 different styles of road  wheels . As well some are pictured using Panther wheels on a axel or two !  I guess the wheel hubs matched  . The all steel versions didn't last very long as they  set up a bad vibration which shook up the radio and crew , so add a rubber tire to the front and rear axels .
