Had a spooky experience in the rig today. At 45 mph the rig started to violently fish tail . Good thing no one was on the road next to me cause I took all of two lanes. Thought I was gonna go over for a second. Really scary. Talked to Jack Covert about it for a bit and he came over to give me a hand. Tires had way too much presure and none of them where the same (had to change out 2 valve stem cores) One had 50 psi, thanks Joe.... Adjusted a little more toe in and Bingo..... Bangin gears at 4000 RPM. Rock solid steering. Needs just a bit more toe in and it'll be perfect.
Now I happy boy
Wasn't the case earlier...
Thx Jack

Love to hear when I plan comes together. Too bad you stained your seat in the process.
What are you running for pressure now? I find that at 25psi in mine, it gets a little darty, but at 20 it works well. At 6psi it will plow in the corners.
Not sure how your weight distrobution is, but I run 20 in the front, and 15 in the rear. I get a little better launch off the line with the lighter pressure.
"Crap" is applied to my personal life which is stalled out, divorce and all...... . I need distraction. The Bronco is good for that and is all good. great in fact. I need to adjust the valves and get a light to time the thing and all is great. Just having a moment. Maybe some trail time would help. Was gonna go hit the Rubicon with Jack today but gotta work. That's part of the "crap" moment as well.
