    Used conveyor belt might work for the base. It's cheap. There are more and different dimensions than the one I linked. This is just an example. The steel pieces don't look too difficult and I might be able to find them as scrap, at least some. Still thinking where to get the other rubber...

    Canning Stock Route

    Never said I wanted to be a die-hard. Space is at a premium for me as I plan on living in my truck, 24/7. I had planned on carrying probably 2 sets of chains for snow but tracks could replace those and be used in very deep snow. Everything's a give and take. Generally, I won't be doing a lot...

    Point taken on the tires. Sadly, I won't be in a position to fly in a whole set of wheels/tires just for one run.

    You can read the Wikipedia page, for some insights. Here's another article. Lots of ads in the 2nd one. Think a properly outfitted Deuce would be ok? The 2nd article I linked mentions you cross over 900 dunes and it recommends no heavy trucks. I'm posting here because my Deuce has been...
