They're still available at Pitsco-Dacta for $7.50 a pack of 36 links, but
they probably don't ship overseas. Someone is always selling a couple packs
on eBay for $9.99, maybe he'll ship overseas.

I just bought 2 packs, and 36 links appears to be a direct replacement for
one of the rubber treads, but I haven't tried it yet. They sure do seem to
have a lot less friction!

By the way, i think the worst problem is using that rubber treads. They are
either too loos or too tough and make a lot of friction. Is it possible to
purchase somewhere several packages of old catterpillar treads? ( I suppose
it's #1230 service pack).

Lego doesn't ship to Czech Republic, and I am afraid these service packs are
not available anymore.

Thanks in advance
