I have been running tracks all year round on my 8x8 but I keep tearing up the back bearing housing. I bought the tracks used and am wondering how many sections of track I should have linked together and if maybe I have too much tension and this is why I am tearing the housings up. They are the plastic 18 inch Argo tracks.

Jeff do you run these tracks and have you had or heard of this problem?

This was also a power and utility vehicle before I had it and it was run awful hard before I bought it.

Actually, the Argo owner's manual states that 8x8 models should have 36 full segments and 1 half segment per side (Section 11, page 51 of the 2007 Operator's manual). The half segment is about 4 inches wide.
