    Goodyear radials SUCK in the snow!!!

    I'm sure there are no other mechanical issues except the t-case. the front tires roll freely, the truck rolls very well on the street, and it had no issues during the 1100 mile trip home. I'm still chocking it up to all 3 things contributing, and not blaming just the tires- no weight, no front...

    Goodyear radials SUCK in the snow!!!

    We'll see how it does when I get the t-case swapped. In reply to the last few posts- I dropped pressures as low as 5psi (tried 25, then 10, then 5). The tires aren't old...no older than several years, 2 or 3 years is more like it. This truck had a fairly fresh servicing, and all 7 tires are...

    Goodyear radials SUCK in the snow!!!

    I even went as far as checking to make sure both rear axles were pulling, and they are.

    Goodyear radials SUCK in the snow!!!

    Well like I said, there are more factors than just the tires, but come on- stuck on nearly flat ground? I'll try it again after swapping t-cases. The biggest issue is that the tires have zero self-cleaning ability. The tread packs with snow and instant slicks. I do realize I went severely low...

    Goodyear radials SUCK in the snow!!!

    I had the opportunity to attempt to drive the Deuce in the snow with the 1100 Goodyear radials, and I have to say I'm less than impressed. O.K., I know I have a lot working against me- the sprag t-case isn't working, so the front tires aren't pulling. The tires are the highway radials, so the...
