In the heat of summer I might be able to get away with no weights, but all it has to do is rain about an inch and I'm back to playing in the mud.
I do try to take it easy on the old girl and take off slowly building up speed. She never seams to really complain. I am thinking most of the damage was already in process prior to me purchasing my 680.
What are others doing who have to run weight for traction aids? Is it preferred to run AG tires? |
Never said a word about removing wheel weights. My question was whether or not the wheel weights were causing any driveline vibrations, because it's been known to happen. At least you're not getting stuck. Nice set up, btw!
