Blazer with tracks

[fishnutbob]

Just Returned from Hallock. Mn. and picked up this Chevy Blazer with tracks to fish Leech lake. I think this will work. Web site if you want to look.http://www.americantracktruck.com/

I used one of these .... it was a Suburban...in Montana. They vibrate a lot so be sure to check the nuts and bolts every so often. Nice ride!

[fishnutbob]

for sure they need to be checked 40lbs on the lug nuts.

Looks sweet! I want one!

Get a set for your Ranger, or 4x4 ATV.  They work great, DO NOT get stuck in slush, and go through very deep snow.
The ATV/Ranger (or similar style) must be run in low range when using the tracks.
I've had two different types, and the Tatou by Camoplast were by far the superior product.

Picked up this Blazer yesterday for ice fishing on leech and any other lakes. Had a checkup today ready to go. 

Ill be winter guiding on leech with this rig now I can get to my summer spots up by Federal Dam from the south shore. I like that. New Pics today.

Thanks,I like yours too!
Really rotten to drive out with a cab and heater, knowing that slush won't stop you.

highbanks up on winnies got a van rigged up like that! pretty cool rides. is there a lot of maintence to these setups???

[jigglestick]

This is the van used at Highbanks by Dave Ferrand of Brainerd.
Dave runs an independant guide service through Highbanks using this van.
This style track system is very high maintanace in my opinion and I'm entitled. I spent quite a few hours under this van this winter.


I think each style has it's own niche, but the rig Bob has is the way I'd go. much more quiet than the side by sides w/tracks. you have heat...I mean GOOD heat, AM/FM CD player. reclining bucket seats. room for five. more horse power. and they come standard with power steering and most have AC. dont forget high low range and the comfort of a fully upholstered interior.

now if they just made them to float
