Yes, are these tracks still available, and from where? And, if they are available, are they sold in the U.S., or are they from a different country? I know there are some things that can no longer be purchased in the U.S., like the Scout/SDK package, but are still popular overseas.

One good source for these tracks is the Tonka toy company. They make several bulldozer models that are fairly good size. I assume they can be ordered overseas. Another good source for tracks are Remote-control toys. Many of them have tracks like that.

One thing you should know- rubber tracks exert a lot of friction- especially when steering. They are not as ideal as TLC’s bulldozer tracks, but much more affordable. The only reason I dont use TLC’s track is the price.
