Abstract:
A vehicle track system to increase the contact patch of the tires on a vehicle for use in sand, snow, or soft soil is disclosed. The vehicle track system is a quickly installed vulcanized rubber sections draped over the tire and secured with very strong over-center latches. The over center latches are used for closing the wrapped rubber track with some fine threaded adjustment and an over center clamp. Steel pins are used to link the individual track to tread together. The over center clamp is adjustable in length, allowing for fine tuning of the fit of the track on the tire. The vehicle track system works for almost any size tire and provides more width for dual wheels. The vehicle track system is easily installable and provides a large footprint that enables a vehicle to cross terrain.
