nothing  spectacular but i went for rides with several cause mine just wasn't drivable. so this one is with steve a friend of scott smiths. the go pro kept slipping sideways. once on the dunes he was running 3rd 4th with a 4.57 r&p and similar 1st thru 4th as mine.

This just must have been the trip for blowing tires! I also had a tire failure ( valve stem broke) passenger side tire right outside of gothenburg Ne. Made it home safely.


Amazing trip!!! Will try to get the parents to come out next time. When dad found out that he can fly into Idaho Falls... He said that the trip just got a lot more appealing (something to do with me driving the rig out and him flying in) We will see if i can twist his arm...

I think I'm going to try a set of these this time.  What do you think seven would cost?

i started looking at 2" drop axles last night. i am going to have to either put wheel wells in or flip the axles. under the leaf spring is a 6" lift going to the 235 -16 wheels. i did find 2" drop axles online last night which would drop it to  a 4m lift. short flip over extension on ramp door will solve that. on the other side of the block here is a dexter axle dealer. dexter doesnt offer 2" drop axles in his catalog. he was trying to eell me on torflex torsion axles

the reaon mine started to come apart is because somehow that leaf spring pivot  siezed and wasnt letting the axle drop. when i jacked that side of the camper up the axle didnt drop! not until i pushed down on the wheel. so i have the bronze bushing and wet bolt kit on mine and greased it all again and no more issues on the way home. now i say this as you can clearly see with wheel off that the tire had rubbed on the floor and was melting the rubber cause there splatter. when i stopped you couldnt get a finger between the floor and top of tire. maybe a pinky finger.

Are we really that ruff on trailer tires?  Shit if car/truck tires lasted like these things we'd have a diff reason to start WW3. 

My trailer came stock w/bias ply tires. Suppose to help sway on hwy? WTF  Those things looked like I shaved a Mohawk on them.  Replaced with a tire, steel belted 10 ply 15", trailer.  Forget name, but great reviews and of course foreign made.
