Dear Cliff,

may be the hull/chassis of your halftrack is bended/distorted and the
wheels don't run in a line (accident?). Also possible that some parts
of he wheels suspension is bended/distorted.

It is very important for a tracked vehicle, that the track wheels are
in a line and don't force the track to a side.

Regards
Andreas
