What are you guys running in your 790s with FEL and R-4s. My tires seem rock hard. The sidewalls on the front deform slightly with a load in the bucket and hitting bumps but I don't think the rears ever flex. I think they are 30 or 36 lbs. in the rear because it had some chalk writing on it when it was delivered Saturday. I wanted to get some opinions before I check the pressure and possibly adjust.
I also got my first "flat" today. Well not really flat but a roofing nail in my R-4s that I removed and plugged with a rubber plug. Looks good so far. It has hard ramming a plug through those puppies especially since the nail ran crossways through part of a lug. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
5 days and already 19 hours on the clock. 90% FEL/ real nasty brush. Plenty of power I was bulldozing large piles of brush clear across the field for burning. It's a beast for it's size. I am learning how to maximize downforce to avoid spinning. Even with the LX-5 hanging out back it still has much more torque than traction. No problems with mud, with the rain it has been pretty nasty. Had to rock myself out twice of mud up to the rims but it was real easy to unstick even without using the FEL. This was pretty bad so I am pleased with it's ability to traverse the mud. Might be that the lack of weight actually helped as it didn't bog REAL deep.
Tractor is great other than the nail /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
