Just like fire arms...it's better to have it and not need it than need it and NOT have it! My 3124KS weighed in at just under 5K lbs last time I put it on the scale and that is right at the limit of the axles (so they say), wheels and tires,. However I went 5500 miles last fall like this and had no issues at all...but that being said, after I got home I decided that I'd changed everything out.... to 7K lb Timbren axle-less axles with a 2 1/4" lift, and new 16" Maxxis tires load rated "E" (about 2480 lbs. per tire) and new rims good for 100 psi. I wanted to make my TM's rolling stock bullet proof...and it is. I don't ever have to worry about any of this stuff ever again no matter how much gear I load into my TM!
Tom...says mo is bettah  |
I would love to do all that! Being that 4 kids cost a little bit of money, I will have to settle for *adequate* rather than *mo*.
After I spend the next 15 years paying for the 4 kids to go through college, I will do lots of upgrades!
