Gotrovr Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Will - I'll help out any way you need... just don't ask me to roll The Hulk again... just confirm that the lack of tire adhesion on the exposed tree roots played a signicant role.

stevenmd Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 just confirm that the lack of tire adhesion on the exposed tree roots played a signicant role. i have the scars to prove it. perhaps we should also talk about proper packing techniques to keep cargo in place in the event of a roll over.

Desertcrawler Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 just confirm that the lack of tire adhesion on the exposed tree roots played a signicant role. Technically, wouldn't lack of tire adhesion help prevent a rollover? Like on a sand dune, it is pretty tough to rollover cause your tires slide all the way to the bottom... now if there is something that hangs up the tires at the bottom of that slick tree root, causing you to come to a sudden stop....
