There are sets for sale all the time here locally on Craigslist- keep your eyes open Quote
BLK'N'YELLOW Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Posted June 1, 2011 OK cool ya i heard 8'' rim works real good with paddles, more floatation thx ill start scoping craigs. Quote

bansheeboy44 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 the guy i bought it from said he liked 12 paddles thats to much tho right , 22x11x8 10 paddle sounds good , I've ran them all and at the same dunes you'll be hitting. With as long as Oldsmobile is 10 paddles with 60 hp (on the conservative side) is a bit much and a lot more work in the dunes. If you're going to Gordon's or Buttercup the hills are shorter and you can get away with more paddle and not sacrifice top-end. I run a 21x12x8 9 paddle extreme right now, but will be getting a set of 22x11x8 12 paddle triple buff extreme for my cub this summer. To each their own though. Quote

I ran a 13 with my 10 paddle haulers......gives some more low end, but I hated how much I was shifting. I run stock gearing and it does well, and I can still start it 2nd when dragging. Gearing is a huge personal preference though IMO. Quote

BUILDER Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 Blue no reason to go with red.. They are much heavier and not needed Quote
