Default Check your road wheels(tamiya)

To all Tamiya Tiger 1 owners....give your outer roadwheels a tug and see if they come loose.
I had almost all of my outer whells come off with a slight tug on them(5 out of 8).
Glad I checked at home and did not lose them in a park or some other remote place.
I had used normal model glue when building tank....made repairs with epoxy!!!!

Also if you have metal tracks on your tiger 1 it would be wise to add a bushing around the axel on the rear idler. If you do not the axel will snap. I just wrapped the axel in electrical tape cut to the proper width and havnt had any problems.
