| Found my Tamiya KT sprues and I have a few of the A1 piece sprocket caps which should fit if you can't find a Torro spare. I'll bring one up to see if it can worked in |

| That’s awesome Martin!
I hate to ask, but could you bring 2 so I could replace the other side as well, just so they match? |

| Hey that’s great, THX so much!
So far no luck finding a direct replacement; would have to buy a sprocket and idler replacement kit just for the cap. |

| Hey no worries at all Mike!
Considering how tight they are to remove I don’t know how it could have come off by itself.

| Hi Mike, Martin was going to bring me some Tamiya ones to try next Saturday...here’s hoping they work. I walked the field on Saturday afternoon for about an hour and today for a couple of hours with no luck. I guess I got my steps in anyway  If you have any to spare, I’ll gladly take them. |

| They are yours if they fit. You can always use a magnet inside instead of compression. That's what I do. Depended on how deep set your mounting bolt is you might need couple of magnet deep. |

I was thinking that exactly, so I don’t lose any more...but in case I do I would have a few as spares. |

| Also with a magnet on it we can use Russell's magnet mobile to find the part if it does come off! :-)

I’ll never lose the cap again...maybe I should glue magnets to everything! |

| Ok THX!
If they fit maybe I can have a few as spares, whenever you make it over to KW.
Oh yeah! Gotta love getting in as much tanking time as possible! |

For the record, nothing broke on the KT today LOL. Today... Must have been a short run! J.K. With the new bolts mounting that baseplate, shouldn't have anymore issues with the driveline until it is completely kaput. No warrantees on the tracks though... |
