T110's Northern Migration

The_Chieftain:   Sure it can. Running it does run the risk of having to replace more parts in the long run, but we've run both tanks and brads with a wheel which fell off. The Bradley we didn't even notice until we got back to base. One of the tanks, we noticed immediately, given it was the idler wheel's axle which snapped, and that really did bring the tank to a screeching halt. Which, when it happened in Iraq, was quite the emotional event to those of us inside the tank! Another time, it was the hub which broke, not the axle. So after the wheel fell off, the axle was rubbing along the track. The first thing that happened is that over time the center guides sawed off the axle (Quite a noise being made when it was happening), and then the swing arm just rubbed against the rubber on the inside of the track, causing no end of smoke and smell.   I just found the video for "I perform this way". That took force of will to watch, quite the assault upon my eyes.
