TRACK AND SUSPENSION.
The vehicle track and suspension system consists of the tracks, final drives, sprockets, universal joints,
roadwheels, roadwheel arms, idler wheels, idler hubs, shock absorbers and torsion bars. The relationship of
these components is shown in the diagram below. When the track receives power from the transmission through
the universal joints, final drives, and sprockets, the tracks begin to revolve around the roadwheels, over the idler
wheels and back to the sprockets, This propels the vehicle either forward or backward, depending on the
selected transmission gear.
