should've busted out the trail deflators for the 60k, show 'em how it's done . . .

[slight off topic] -> where do you work again? In October I'm gonna be making a trip straight up the 101 with everything I own (RV towing the Lexus & 4runner pulling the trailer) . . . I'll buy you a beer when I'm up that way

The second and fourth axles, do have selectable lockers, and all 4 axles crab. What we did is put the outriggers out and lifted the Liebherr. We then filled in sand under the tires and tried a second time. No problem. He was fine until he made the turn.

I work in Santa Cruz, for the Beach Boardwalk. This is a ride we are installing. I do want to see that 7MGE powered runner.

Cool! That'd be great to work right on the beach.
