Re: Maxtrax

Sometimes its better to keep going and keep the momentum up. If you stop, especially in sand, you can get yourself into more strife.
Of course if you've had a bit of experience 4wding, then only you will know its time to stop.

Re: Maxtrax
Scot
I cannot stress enough the importance of correct tyre pressure - I probably carry on a bit about this, but from first hand experience a difference of between 2 to 5psi can impact greatly on how the vehicle works. There is a 'sweet' spot for sand work depending on your tyre type/size and when you find this with some experimentation, the vehicle doesn't labour as much.
I found Maxtrax and other such devices to be useful only when bogged really deep - with correct pressure for sand work you should not get to that point.
I use an analog pressure gauge with a 0 to 40 range to give me accurate readings particularly between 10 and 20 psi
Hope this helps and have fun

Re:
Has anyone mounted the Max Trax on the roof rails? I haven't got a basket yet so thinking of mounting the Max Trax on the roof rails especially when it gets muddy. My rails are Nissan OE (Rhino?). Cheers
