Re: Patrol 4.8 GL and TYRES
I always deflate my BFG A/T's to 0.6 - 0.8 Bar in the sand and I have never had any problems with the tyre coming off the rim. I think the reason might be the design of the steel rim and also the fact that they are narrower tham the std Patrol rims.Saltman wrote:Hi Grant
So please define "work" - in the 4.8 manual the word is not mentioned in the same sentence as the petrol engine ... he he he ...so when driving soft conditions the Troll has to work a little harder.
Glad to hear that they work well with the Patrol chassis, now anyone out there with experience of the extra horses from the 4.8 and BFG A/T's? Although I have not made up my mind yet, at this stage they are my no 1 choice. I am looking for counter arguments to convince otherwise!
Have a lekka weekend.
