The tank tracks needs to be "static", so what you need to model is just the tracks as a single object (with no linkages...)...
The tracks moves by rotating the textures around that object that you define as the track.
EDIT: realized my answer might not be all that clear so searched my photobucket to see what I had laying around to describe it better:
dont do the individual links as I did here:
Do it like this: (sorry if its rather small)
