Nah, I ran that same tire on the stock wheels thousands of miles. It was either a pinched tube that went flat or the tire sat flat for a period of time.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
By the looks of that tire my guess is it sat flat for a long time. This weakens the sidewall belting.Nah, I ran that same tire on the stock wheels thousands of miles. It was either a pinched tube that went flat or the tire sat flat for a period of time.
The ndcc's are biased ply tires. The 395's are radials. Bias tires aren't hurt sitting flat nearly as much as radial tires.I just hope this is a freak thing
i have put a lot of miles on my old NDT that looked like trash cracking all over bald flat spots from locking up the brakes previous owner and almost never had any trouble out of them!
As annoying as it may be your best bet is to remember to install the plug before mudding and remove it when your done. Though with your use of the truck I'd say leaving the bellhousing plug in is way better than forgetting to put it in.after the holidays i will be getting some mrap wheels and adapters. This weekend i got the fuel pump fixed never has worked and the starter working!! After reading post on common fixes. The pump just needed a new fuse one 10 amp fuse works perfect now. Last time mudding the truck starter was not working right might take one push or 20 pushs of the button to get a start. When i went to get tires i pushed the button a hundred times still no start. When i pulled the starter it had so much dirt in the nose piece it was inpossible for the starter to engage far enough to power the starter. After cleaning about 2 cups of mud out of the starter and lots of wd40 got the bendix working good every time. Is it bad to install the plug in the bellhousing and leave it in?
