You may not like it, but this is what peak performance look like

>>28206744Pretty common up here to pull your outside duals off in the winter. Duallies increase your contact patch and reduce your traction in the rear, on a pickemup which is already going to be lighter back there. Also fuck buying 6 winter tires and having to chain them up anyways when it gets shitty out. Hard smarter, not worker.
>>28206744>>28206748Lol
>>28206761Lols
>>28206759Pretty common around here to take off your outside duals when you tear out or burn down two tire and you can just run the inside wheel because there is no enforcement for anything and you can just finish off your trip on those wheels without overthinking shit.
>>28206744Nice having redundancy
>>28206759Nice small block 9th gen, I don't think I see a master cylinder.How's the e4OD holding up?
>>28206927I just bought it yesterday for dirt pennies. Shifts decent after I dumped two bottles of stop slip in her. Dont plan on keeping it that way though, ive got a regular cab 94 IDI turbo ZF5 with no title in the back yard I'm going to rip the guts out of and jam in there.
>>28206942Nice, you gonna build the 351 or pawn it off on marketplace? My buddy is trying to get a small block to rebuild for his 1 ton but we are both fucking broke unfortunately.
>>28206966Usually I either hold her at redline until the old engine self disassembles or just pull it in one piece and let it rot in my back yard. I don't really ever sell anything, dealing with marketplace retards usually isnt worth the couple hundred I might eventually make from selling it. If you're near north Idaho you could just have it but I'm not fucking around with freighting it or anything.
>>28206942typical truck tard using snake oil fluids lol. Consider a real vehicle
>>28207045what's it like to have a nice car and a gf?
>>28207045i know wat a gaydar is, but what tha mobile phone do
>>28207045>Germ menSorry, not for me, I'm not a commie.
>>28207045There's nothing appealing about this image
>>28206759>>28206942>>28207006Based old Ferd collector. I've drug more shitpile OBS Ferds home with my ol IDI than I care to admit.
>>28206744Zesty
>>28206759as an engineer in R&D for one of the biggest tire manufacturers, nothing of what you said made any fucking sense.
>>28206759>increase contact patch>reduce traction
>>28209593I think he is talking about bad stuff like mud and ice/snow where you want more weight to dig
>>28209597If you're fording 5ft snow drifts sure, but at that point you should be running chains
>>28206759>increase your contact patch and reduce your tractionThat is NOT how that works, nigger.
>>28209560my dad works for michelin and says you're an idiot.
>>28209560>>28209593>>28209614This is why engineers are brainlets and shouldn't be considered human amongst polite society. They'll shit coefficients of friction out their ass because "frictional load is independent of surface area so long as the normal force remains a constant" and other such bullshit that everyone learned in highschool physics without understanding that what matters in low traction situations isnt rolling resistance or frictional load, its ground pressure. Ground pressure is what matters when you are trying to gain traction on a surface covered in snow, or mud, or any low friction environment. Thats why throwing tube sand in the bed helps, it increases ground pressure. But you can also increase ground pressure by decreasing the surface area the same mass is spread across.>nb4xHere is an analogy for you retards. How come when you shoot a rifle, the stock doesn't go right through your shoulder? Basic physics says every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and if it was the other way around that bullet would go right through you. The answer is surface area. The surface area of the stock spreads the same force on a larger area, making a 30-06 very pleasant to shoot, whereas the nose of a 30-06 projectile is a fraction of an inch, and not so pleasant to be shot by.
>>28206744i used to know somebody who did this with his Tacoma. I forget what he did, but he said he put on the cheap skinny tires to help with the gas mileage and then install the real tires when he got to his job site if he thought it was necessary.
>>28206744When you’re paying $1400 for a truck a month and can’t even afford proper tires.
>>28209560>>28209593>>28209614I trust rally teams who decide to drive in the snow on spacesavers over retards on /o/
>>28209637It's primarily because of the weight difference you retard, not the surface area of the buttstock.
>>28209656snow on gravel isn't the same as snow on asphalt
>>28207045Hey nook
>>28206761Kek
>>28209641I assume he achieved some noticeable results?
>>28209603Skinny tires or chains would just dig down in situations like that and frame you out instantly. Why do you think they run 475's in the arctic? There's times where the float from a wider is advantageous and there's times when you want to bite the ground as hard as possible.It's funny how this "auto enthusiast" forum struggles with simple shit like tire width and traction.
>>28209674What's the reasoning behind this?I noticed skinnier tyres go better off road weirdly
>>28206744You are wrong cobba
Cunt
>>28210185Fuck if I know. He said he got better highway mileage and he kept doing it so I can only assume that he thought it was worth it.
