Hey guys, I have decided to convert the GW bw by using FW trakks from the Halktrakk. I was going to replace the two wheels at the front with the fw trakks.

I lowered the GW ones so it would be level.

I then added some structure to the trakks using plasticard and parts from the trukk kit.

I then magnetized it to the base.

ok then a update after a long time of doing nothing
I shave widened the gw trakks so they blend with the forge world ones. I use some plastic tube/beads to do this. Once I did this i cut some pieces of 0.75mm plasticard into strips. These will then go onto the track to fill in the gaps. I will fold over the end to blend with the forge world ones.

Awesome, very sand crawler-ish!
I like it. I love the new stuff from FW for the Orks.
I have a spare battle wagon chassis and two sets of tracks. I was thinking about doing something similar and after seeing yours I think I will~!
