Hey Gerhard, do you know if one could swap in the 7.36 reverse into the 3053A?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
My experience too.spicergear said:I also feel that because of the load on the nose; engine, pulled line, etc... that you have far greater traction on the singles (similiar to what mudlord said) than pulling from the rear. In certain applications the rear, because of all the tires, doesn't have the contact pressure on the tires and will easily just spin. Plus that doesn't help load the nose at all. I've spun the truck around and pulled logs out in reverse that would just make the truck spin pulling forward.
Nope!( if you still want .79 o.d.) The (numerically) lower ratio in the 3053A is a direct consequence of the different gearing btw. input- and counter shafts. 3052 has 22T/48T while the 3053A is 29T/42T.Recovry4x4 said:Hey Gerhard, do you know if one could swap in the 7.36 reverse into the 3053A?
this is a very tricky subject.BEASTMASTER said:why would anyone pull anything in reverse??? when you hook to the back of the truck you are putting the pulling on the rears, thus increasing the traction. when you hook to the front end you are robbing the rears of weight transfer thus reducing traction on the rears![]()
Pulling is reverse is a result of trucks traveling in the same direction on a narrow trail or road with no room to turn around.BEASTMASTER said:why would anyone pull anything in reverse??? when you hook to the back of the truck you are putting the pulling on the rears, thus increasing the traction. when you hook to the front end you are robbing the rears of weight transfer thus reducing traction on the rears![]()
