| Super Swampers XL, CI foams and wheel weights
Super Swampers XL, CI foams, axial beadlocks, and wheel weights work great together IF the foam has plenty of clearance. I learned this lesson after stuffing the weighted wheels into the foams and running for 30 minutes. When the weighted wheels are stuffed into the foams, the foams can end up shifting to the inside and/or outside of the wheel and not shift back. This can cause all kinds of issues, from getting hung up on linkages to funky tire alignment. I solved this problem by shaving out a few mm of material from the inside of the foam to the point at which the wheel with weights could easily pass through foam. After testing, all is good. Mileage will vary, great results for me! |
