Embodiments of the disclosed technology are directed to methods and/or apparatuses for propelling a vehicle over difficult terrain, using a tracked-belt wheel assembly that is adjustably extendable from an under body of the vehicle. The tracked-belt wheel assembly may be driven by the same rotational force used to turn the drive-axle of the vehicle. A switch-controlled actuating feature may be used to raise and/or lower the wheel assembly, using one or more hydraulic cylinders. The switch may toggle between different operating modes of the wheel assembly which correspond to different levels of extension with respect to the driving surface and/or the tires of the vehicle. The tracked-belt may additionally have adjustable spikes or studs for further engaging a driving surface.
