    Preparing For Corrugations/Wash Boards/Road Ripples

    Done plenty of miles on dirt at those speeds too, but on smooth, relatively maintained dirt. At 80psi on corrugations, you'd be barely skimming the tops of the bumps. You'd be like a rock that's been skipped across a frozen pond :lol: All of this is all good, until it isn't, or until your...

    I have no qualms doing short stints at up to 50 on aired down tires on good dirt,or on hard top For example, if I've spent a chunk of time on gravel roads, back on to hard top for a short stint before getting back into dirt I'll stay aired down. Say 10-20 miles. Much more than that, air up...

Fast, so the wheels skip across the top of the bumps. There'll be an optimal speed where the spacing between ridges, and...

    Preparing For Corrugations/Wash Boards/Road Ripples

    People have advised average speed of 13mph, and you're gonna hit it at 50? Pre- book a medi-vac chopper. Some corrugated roads, you aren't gonna travel over at speed no matter what you do to the rig. Drive to the conditions. Be prepared for it to be a 2hr trip. Enjoy the ride and the scenery...
