that axle is probably 700 pounds or so... add 209# per tire and probably 50# per wheel, and i have about 2000 pounds unsprung weight at each end...

Just try to make sure you have time to do some test runs and get some practice in, especially with the rear steer. I've watched every TTC on video there is and it's pretty obvious, at least to me, the guys who have a decent amount of seat time in the current setup on the rigs and those who don't.

Won't get much rear steer seat time... sucks but it is what it is. but it's not like I have to use it. Need to be careful with it... a guy rolled in the tank trap last year due to lack of recentering, etc.

are you going to run limiting straps? and when do you leave?

carwash · 05-13-2010, 10:01 AM

yes running straps, just not here yet. needed new ones for new mounting point configuration.
