I remember a thread about steering, months, maybe years ago, about vibration dampening.
Something about a device or accessory attached to the R&P setup that absorbed "twitches." Was it called a "mop"? Something odd like that.
About my tire pressure... Gunrack has never been tracked, but I work empirically. The pressure drop stopped the steering wheel dancing, good enough for me.
I'm running 8" front, 10" rear, with 45-profile tires, Nitto street slicks, barely enough tread to make them legal.
Gunrack weighs 2700 lb with me on board, I figure a 60/40 weight ratio, calculate the weight load per tire, estimate each tire's footprint, somebody out there has the smarts to do the math to figure out the load per tire. (not UT!)
I'm repeating myself now, I drove Gunrack in the rain, accidentally, once.
Once.
I found out the hard way that those Nittos' sticky rubber compound turns into Teflon when it hits wet pavement.
Look up "hydroplane" in the dictionary and you will find my picture.
I know that I am scrubbing rubber onto the pavement like a rubber eraser on sandpaper, but Hey! Three years today, less than 5,000 miles. Tire mileage is 'way down on the "concern" list.
Somebody please buy my car, I need it like I need a 3rd herniated disk. I've had my fun, I have the pics, I have the memories.
