UFWDA Snow Wheeling

[skimore11]

We will have to take a road trip so we can get some Comanches photographed with this scenery.

This is from the United Four Wheel Drive Association news letter. I would suggest that ComancheClub.com join but not at $1000 a year. What do you guys think is UFDA worth joing as an individual?

They need the floatation to stay on top of the snow. I bet they only run a couple psi in them too.

Man that looks awesome! I just don't know if I could do it or not. Freak storms blowing in would worry me. 8)

Snow can be a bish! Especially when the solid ground below it is 20' down. Thus they run tires with a non-aggressive tread, massive width (and height) and very little air pressure. Those guys will run 6psi WITHOUT beadlocks, and about 1psi with.

 

 

They do similar here in the winter. As in true snow wheeling (42" tires or bigger required). It becomes a pretty crazy battle between keeping the rig light enough, having it stay together, and choosing a tire that doesn't just dig you to the ground, but still allows some traction.

 

 

Anyways, Iceland is pretty sweet.
