Alrighty then! I measured the tires this weekend and...they are all the same! That solves that problem. So, Big Jim you being the expert...what is my problem then? If it doesn't keep doing it, what's going on then? The physics of what you're saying makes sense on surfaces that have little to no "give". Where I ran it last weekend was in a slough, very boggy and sloppy conditions. This would lead me to beleive that it wouldn't do it b/c of the ability to slip, but then again, what do I know?

The other thing is that you can drive it around for a while and sometimes it never does this. When it does do it, it is not always on the hard-packed road. I've had it do it to me in sand, mud and water, grass etc. What's funny is it never actually binds up. When it does it my natural instinct is to stop b/c of the fact it sounds like someone is banging on the bottom of the jeep w/an 8 lb. sledge hammer! You can let out on the clutch and away she rolls again! Sometimes she'll go 30 feet and do it again, other times it never does it in 3 hours of riding!!!!

I'm at a loss b/c as I said it is not just "gaining traction". I've driven this jeep in the same conditions since 1986, so unless the traction fairy <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> has come along and spread traction dust, something's gotta be broken or setup wrong. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
