sand rocket Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 depending on sand conditions, i run 7-8 psi in my 22x11x10 8 paddle haulers when the sand is wet, or 3-5 psi when dry. I will run about the same as the rear with the front dune runners. Also with the lower psi in the rear i have a problem with the tire turning on the rim. I am anal about my paddles lining up.

I found that if I can't quite get them lined up that I can usually rotate the hub itself and get them nearly dead on. I wonder if there is any performance issues with un aligned paddles???

Justintoxicated Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 it is better to have them lined up, reduces wobble or something, you want them to pull on each side at about the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
