troyzstang Posted January 21, 2013 Report Posted January 21, 2013 This ones for the veterans. Just curious about wheel placement on a JJ & A drag axle. What benefits / results are gained by sliding the wheels closer to the sprocket / brake assembly. Thanks guys Troy Quote
Paulie B Posted January 21, 2013 Report Posted January 21, 2013 You know I ain't no veteran and as Windy would tell me I'm just guessing lol I'm saying it gives better weight distribution over the tires. If I had an adjustable axel I'd get offset rims and flip them around just to make it look cooler haha Quote
#1JUANstunna Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 I personally like mine as close together as possible to get the tires under my little ass for the traction. It makes it a little more unstable in a wheelie but its not that big of a deal. Quote

When we go to 300' sand we spread them out for a more stable/predictable run. The asphalt width is not safe for sand. We could go narrower on asphalt, but it gets to a point where less width becomes a safety factor. Quote
