On eBay I managed to find a basically new on sprue Razorback kit for a good price, catch being that the right tank track is missing (presumably so are the instructions but I could probably find a .pdf easily enough).
I've searched for this particular part but I can't seem to find it anywhere, frustratingly enough I found an auction for the right pattern's LEFT tank tracks but the owner of that part said it wouldn't work on the other side...

Can anyone give any help with this?

Don't believe me? It's all in the numbers.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. They are basically just rhinos aren't they? A track is a track afaik. You will probably just need to get both tracks, which you should be able to find easy enough, just search for rhino tracks.

Help me, Rhonda. HA!

IIRC the track bits have pegs that fit between the wheels to keep things lined up. They are on different sides of the treads for left/right, so you can’t just swap them. Cut them off and replace, maybe.

Believe it or not, I've been searching and I can't find any besides that one left-hand auction...

Just wait it out, the dude selling those left tracks was also selling right tracks - more will turn up if you're patient (they also go on last anyway)

Ah well that's cool to know I suppose, I guess I can jump into bidding without fear!
Just hope that if I get it that it won't take too long to find the right stuff.

If it's a chaos Rhino, I might suggest the following:

You can also use predator tracks, same base model. There are a few up on ebay now.

That's cool! Awkward that it's bidding instead of Buy It Now but I can probably roll with it.
Is it the right side though?

You can buy one from the same seller, but it's $9.99.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TRACKS-bits-Chaos-Predator-Warhammer-40K-Games-Workshop-/281776922275?hash=item419b369ea3

The tracks would likely auction for less.

Rhinos, Razorbacks, Predators, Whirlwinds, and Vindicators would all use the same treads, wouldn't they?

As a DA player, you should use one of each!

Fair enough. In any case are these ones okay for the right side?
EDIT: Hold on, these are BOTH parts, aren't they?

Yeah, I searched a few of these, I guess I didn't search enough of them.
I guess I gotta remember to search terms for every variant.

Bumping for update, lost the auction so I suppose this is moot, but I'll certainly keep this all in mind if it ever comes up again.

Thankfully there's a Razorback BNIB going for a low price, hopefully it doesn't collect TOO many bids...

Have you contacted GW yet, they will replace it for free, just need the sprue info like any letters or numbers on it, and what part it is.

I bought a older kit that was oop, and they replaced the missing rhino tracks, all three of them that were missing, no issues or questions.

Ah cool, will keep that in mind for the future!

Might actually consider contacting them about my Deathwing box, lost a base for the Relic... Best to at least try before getting another.
