Hey Troy u said u have never chained up u should try running a couple sets of triples with studs out there in the mud u wouldn't have to get pulled near as often lol
Gotta love working in the bush after the rain,up the range gets bad with that red grease,good ol kenworth never been stuck yet but the old star and our big star get bogged all the time though... probly see me round up herveys somehwere if your working there alot ...good vids too mate
@TheCumminspower59 Thanks for answering my question for me. Yeah the buzzing sound is the interaxle power divider. The diff lock doesn't have a buzzer just a light, but it can't engage unless the power divider is in anyhow. Just a safety measure so you don't forget to switch it off
The buzzing noise are troys diff locks and inter-axle it's similar to 4x4 but in stead of making the front axle turn it just locks the two rear drive axles up all at once when the are out u only have one set of tires turning that puts power to all four if Troy didn't turn on his inter-axle at least on uneven ground he could run a risk of a blown diff and that's no fun in the bush
surprised how well the little truck pulled you up, did a very impressive job. would you do any better with the dozer further forward to get some more weight onto the drive?
love the videos i always look forward to watching them! now whats the buzzzing indicator when your going through the mud? thats 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive or something right? i didnt even know semi`s had it lol. also why dont you use it all the time when going through the woods. or is it designed for as needed?
@baldymp3 Yeah the mighty canter did allright concidering it was like driving on grease. And it wouldn't have made anydifference witht he weight mate. empty loaded or otherwise. I had no steering and very little traction
@alwaysoffroad just trying to help out lol ya I wasn't positive as to what the buzzing was for I knew it was four one of your locks I have never driven a truck that has a buzzer for anything but low air my trucks all just have lights for the diffs but hey at least u have the best off road truck nothing better than a westernstar for off road
@TheCumminspower59 Yeah i've seen plenty of pics of trucks in the mud up in the oil patch with chains on. Not my idea of fun. Rather just use a loader or dozer....LOL!
