Hah! You asking me, I feel good about remembering my name when I first wake up in the morning. :-) The bed should be narrower, since some of the first deuces were made with singles, which was recognized as the better config for off-road from day one, I'm sure. Gerhard brings up the stability...

The pipeline bed is 85 inches wide without the ginpoles and lines up with the front fenders. Robert (RDM), what about making wheel spacers a' la CJ-7 type off road mods (my son has them for his)? Shouldn't be that difficult to make 3" wide spacers for a 6 inch wider track.

The traction is great, but it did make it hard to make turns on slippery ground, the truck kept going straight in some turns. Single rear tires is better here...

Perhaps I should plan to go to Haspin just for a demo of how well chains work. :-) I rarily leave home without them...even brought them to Florida, but that was mainly to be prepared to get home in case of snow on our hilly road. Yeah, I like my chains and they actually eliminate the need for...
