RC ADVENTURES - Trucking Practice - Remote Locking Diffs - 1/14 8x8 Armageddon Hydraulic Dump Truck

Click Here To Subscribe! ► - I'm learning how to drive in the Snow and Ice with Remote Locking Diffs! This is Crazy - and only when I was driving did I notice that my second axle from the front stopped engaging half way through the video! BAH! Well - i started off by adding a LOT of snow weight. The Snow is Heavy here.. and is a perfect load for this 8x8 Rig. Only problem is.. it loosened off during driving and became a Selectable 6x8..Haha. Thats my bad.. I must have to make an adjustment to the tension wires. I have also ordered some Wider Tires for the front of the rig.. I think it will help the footprint
I know so many of you want me to go over this truck in the studio .. and I promise I will do that very soon!
