Friulmodel tracks and DML king tiger?

Do the Friulmodel tracks fit the new DML/Dragon 1/35 scale King Tiger?

I would think so. I haven't tried it myself but since the tracks and the tank is the same scale I hope they fit together.
If they don't it will proberbly be the drive sprocket that is the problem. Here you are in luck because Friulmodelismo also makes new drive sprockets for the King tiger in white metal, and I would be very surpriced if the Friulmodelismo Sprockets don't fit the Friulmodelisimo tracks.

I just had a quick look in one of my catalogues, and it says that the Friulmodelisimo tracks for the King Tiger fits both the Tamiya and the Dragon models I guess this includes the new models aswell. The drive sprockets also fits both the Tamiya and the Dragon models.

Yes,
I have them on my Dragon King Tiger.. just make sure you leave the rear idler loose so you can adjust the slack..

Here is a link to the "in-progress" pic. The hull and turret are on loose just for representation..

Jon,
The torsion bars are seperate... Smile [:)]
The only thing I don't like about the Dragon KT so far is the instructions are actual photos of the model in-progress and sometimes don't show exactly how parts go on.. I had to refer to an already built Tamiya KT and reference photos to get the right postion on some parts.Black Eye [B)]
