What happened to make the cv snap mate?

BTW, nice setup! I like the look of those tyres when locked! How do they go on road with sound?

I went up for a snow run to my feild and I got stuck front wheels where spinning then it gained trcaiton and snap! Not nice driving down a mountain full of snow with a snapped cv,

Best tyres i have had they are good year wrangler's kevlar ones,
There's not much road noise about the same as my bfg a/t, they haven't let me down in the mud, clean them self's well,

Haha, I saw the picture and thought wait a second... Didn't he just say they cleared mud well it looks thick! I'll have to keep them in mind when the money is available for new tyres.

Snow and a snapped cv doesn't sound like fun! Glad it's all sorted and back in the wet mud where it belongs!

Agree mtr Kevlar tyres are awesome
Shame about the price

To keep in best condition need to keep alignment and balance up to them

Think I'd invest In Some weather shields to keep that mud on the outside! Outstanding effort.

Another weekend away thanks to the triton!


Is that a water carrier on the your roof racks? Black to absorb heat so it can be a shower later on? Brain is ticking.

Mine seems to go alright I live in w.a and its all beaches and soft sand over here lower your pressures I find 15psi is my optimum for momentum drag etc.

I run in low range for the quick pick up 2nd gear and she flys.
