Are Dual Tires Better Than Singles? Oshkosh 7ton On 12 Tires.

[@Nunya11672]

Hunter, ive heard that Better Help pitch many times on different channels but for some reason coming from you it sounded more heartfelt and honest i would definitely use your link and if i was in need of therapy.👍

[@jono6379]

Do your research on betterhelp before using them. They have been in the news recently for some serious controversies including selling peoples medical information and using unlicensed therapists

[@morrisster]

Even though they use non certified therapists and sell your data? Nice…

[@NathanNostaw]

Unless you get the same therapist, I wouldn't be using better help. Dodgy company with dodgy history and scam level costs.

[@B.Colby107]

I think this is got to be one of the best better help ad reads. Keep up the great work and awesome content Hunter!

[@harmonpatch6858]

Running tires together will create sidewall heat, & they will blow, but it looks cool & does seem to make more traction, love the video

[@Not_Built-Right]

Exactly , hence why dually semi wheels have days to helpwith traction , control heat best if you have 2 in gap put some pate in between the lug shafts that is going to absorb alot more of the stresses and abuse you put on them @hunter_goodrich .......p.s. please keep up the mayhem you rock .

[@000622477]

Absolutely agree for highway use. You think the same is true for slower, more infrequent off-road use?

[@davidwoermansr]

​@@000622477slow offroad stuff is fine

[@davidwoermansr]

That thing won't be going down the roads with the duals on he'd need wideload signs all the time that means expensive insurance and it wouldn't pass inspection to run them on road

[@d.rowley5023]

probably arent traveling on highways enough to generate enough heat to do that.

[@wellplanetfreak101]

Yess!! Love when hunter drops a new video!

[@simonburnby]

Love the fact ya showed the difference between what ya could with the singles vs duals

[@zfilmmaker]

Now that you left Sparks, it’s clear you were an integral part of his team/business. If I were him, I’d fly out and talk you into coming back. He’s going to look for your replacement for a long time.

[@davidwoermansr]

Why would he beg him to come back when he liked to see him go out on his own instead of working for other people the rest his life besides Dave's commercials make him more money than a show ever would

[@zfilmmaker]

@@davidwoermansr “work for the rest of his life”? Hunter’s in his 20’s and was getting great exposure. For Dave, Hunter was a crucial asset as a fabricator, welder, truck driver and frequent recovery team member. That’s not easy to replace. Hunter should have marketed his channel more while he was with Sparks. If Hunter wants to make this channel successful he’s going to need weekly video uploads. That’s much easier to accomplish with a film crew and dedicated editor.

[@davidwoermansr]

@@zfilmmaker sparks seems to be doing just fine with his commercials and Hunter's doing good ya gotta start somewhere and nobody can afford the Hollyweird crap right away if it wasn't for the TV show being so famous the little commercial channel sparks runs wouldn't be so successful

[@zfilmmaker]

@@davidwoermansr you clearly don’t own a company to understand the value of certain employees.

[@davidwoermansr]

@@zfilmmaker you're wrong I own 3 and co-own 7 others and while it sucks losing a good employee like my 1 and only boss did for me I encourage any employee that wants to work long enough for me to buy the tools necessary to start their own business and either rent a building or build 1 to follow their dreams and infact 1 of the 1s I co-own is a former employee that was having a hard time finding a building that would work so I got a loan he makes the payments and till it's paid off I get 5% of his monthly profits so if he breaks even or falls on his face I get nothing but the loan payment that month but I always tell them as long as they don't blindside me 1 day saying this is my last day or call in to quit they can always come back and have the equipment and shop as a side hustle I love it when people I hire are ambitious enough they want to be their own boss and make a life owning their own company than be miserable working for someone else including me ill help any employee reach their goals if their serious about it I'll pull them from the shop for a week and show them the bookkeeping bill paying and material ordering side of things then show them my method of how I inventory things and explain the method behind my madness that boils down to get everything unloaded from the semi to keep the driver happy and get him down the road by having everything scattered in the parkinglot unless it's my truck and it doesn't need loaded for a couple days then I have racks and bins for everything and things are sorted by size and put nearest the station that needs them first it can be a difficult thing to keep rolling if everyone is wandering around looking for parts I also show them clear back to the beginning as I was planning my shop I changed my mind several times on the size till I got everything flowing from 1 station to the next just like an assembly line but with room for stuff to be put in a rack till that part was needed 1 of my former wrecker drivers I sold him his first 2 rollbacks and towtruck and when I buy my new repo truck if he wants my old 1 I won't trade it in at the end of the day any employee can be replaced and if I can help a young employee reach their dreams and build their credit and reputation I'd rather do that than say sucks to be you get to work your on the clock I even have houses I rent for 100 bucks a week way cheaper than anyone else will rent to them and it's just taken out of their check each week I have 7 guys that live 45 minutes away I bought a van and I pay for the fuel so they all meet up and ride together saves their vehicles getting wore out and losing an employee because they don't have a vehicle anymore so maybe I don't value a good employee as much as I value anyone especially younger people who aren't afraid to step out on their own and build something they can pass to their kids like I did

Wasnt hardly fair trying it out in all that heavy mud, but it did make for a supreme test! That was funny watching you sprint after that run away wheel LOL Therapy is good for the soul and BetterHelp is the way to do it!!

[@McBukanyr]

you should try making chains for these dualies. this setup, when chained up, id bet be unstoppable. it would eat up that hill like nothing.

[@nealraymoore]

Hey Hunter, I was noting your manual shop press. I too have one but used a Harbor Freight air over hydraulic 20 ton jack powered by my air compressor and controlled by a floor pedal to activate the ram. Much faster and easier to operate, see ya soon. Neal

And better than better help is try to develop a personal relationship with the Lord the sound mind that comes with understanding and growing in a personal relationship with the Lord is for more valuable and fulfilling and trying to adapt to a therapist mindset my prayers will be with you God bless

[@HunterGoodrich]

Agreed, God comes first! BetterHelp does ask if you’d like to be paired with a Christian therapist and that was definitely an important feature for me

[@garyyorke1080]

Ideas seems sound . However you have more stress force on the single point where they fit to the wheel , possible twisting compared to the solid cylinder versions you have made in the past . In the process you have proved a sound idea which is pretty normal for most of your out there ideas . Made for a great video and glad you are settled and back at goffing about with your crazy ideas

[@taodej]

Love your creativity and great mechanical engineering, love watching you work. Drone crash was cool too. Great video! Been watching ever since you made those wood burning run away turbos.

[@dereklancaster2303]

Looks like a hell of a good time to me!!

[@caesar1295]

Hunter I grew up in the red clay mud it’s like driving on ice, wheel speed is needed to clean the clay and mud out of the treads or your just running slicks. The duals sure increased the off road ability of the 6x6 and the ground pressure, good idea for off roading but somebody’s going to have cut you a wider road in those mountains.

[@angryretrogamer7313]

Cool idea for that truck. Great video thanks

[@MrLarsgren]

i think its same as when driving on snow. twins give you better floatation but less traction because they dont dig in.

[@dennispalmer6007]

But more surface means more traction

[@MrLarsgren]

@@dennispalmer6007 not on all surfaces. thats why people got narrow winter tires

Rig a set of DIY tracks for the rear tandem, making a bit of a half-trak

[@davidwoermansr]

Front tracks would be awesome too just have to use the all purpose track like used on farm equipment

[@rujimbob]

That southern red clay smooths out any tire and makes it slick,

[@weldeddaydreams]

I love your attitude way more than the Sparks guys, they just try too hard, your chill nature is refreshing and you're clearly comfortable in front of the camera, something I'm still working on. I love the "have a crack" style of engineering too. I think you need some more aggressive tread on your duals, will swampers stand up to the weight of that truck? Either way, it's damned cool and you've easily earned a sub from my channel.

How about adding forestry wheel chain/tracks off a forwarder to the inside wheels of the rear tandems. Bet that would get you up and over the hill.

[@jasonpinnix1905]

Put the dozer on the back of the truck . She will go good then . Build a ring just like a old school farm tractor it will take so much of the stress out of the equation.

[@davidwoermansr]

That's what he did for Dave's stuff but 7 ton wheels are different the space between those bolts is so small they'd crack and fail under pressure

[@kerrybyrne3277]

Living your best life dude

[@KnogMakkan]

Looks badass with dual! 💪 regards from Sweden 🇸🇪

[@BrianHurry]

It's counterintuitive but with the exception of drag strip tires most tires will have a friction coefficient of less than one which means doubling the number of tires will give you less grip. This is why you can walk down a hill with your small shoes but you can slide if you're on a wide toboggan. And if you lose grip on your shoes all you have to do is tilt the edges to get more grip because the less surface area equals more grip

[@robertstock9912]

Oh Hunter Goodrich you do make life interesting really enjoyed that one and would just love to ride around in one of those trucks that looks fun

[@davidwoermansr]

They're a blast especially with a snorkel kit I have pictures of going out to rescue people who didn't evacuate soon enough and some of them I had the transfer case in low and was in 2nd or 3rd gear standing on the edge of where the door goes to steer and all you could see is me and my buddy's shoulders and heads the top foot of the air intake tube and filter hat and about 6 inches of the exhaust stack it took water a couple times took forever to boil it out so we ended up running a self-taping screw in for a drain plug till it needed a new stack then we went 2 foot taller

[@sweettooth7124]

Sir if youd like it to hold and be safe id recommend not going so cheap on making spacers. You want a gap between the inner sidewalls even in a offroad situation so the tires can air down and flex.

[@larrybreuer4495]

[@drueatcer]

Definitely an awesome looking truck with those tires.

[@pattyyoung3570]

If the tires are spaced apart 3-4 inches the mud will come out the center and not become a land roller , all so weld metal between pipes and some across to make them ridged . And if chains are added you will get better grip .

[@Utubegofukurself]

IF those tube/nuts hold long enough, Those sidewalls will eat each other alive in no time.

[@davidwoermansr]

Only if something can force its way in since they were touching I don't see it being easy aired up and it's too wide to legally drive on road besides bias ply tires don't flex like radials and military tires are a dime a dozen

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

With the duals the tyre pressure can be a lot lower, henceforth better traction, truly called floatation tyres as used in the extreme conditions,

[@PeterC5131]

Obviously not designed to travel any great distance on bitumen roads or at great speeds, don't know enough about duel wheels to know if they will over heat doing what you are doing with them. Don't think it will be a problem. Next step is chains (snow/mud) on the front wheels for traction with steering and tracks between the two rear axles. Put some decent cleats on the tracks and that thing will go just about anywhere, steering may be difficult though.

[@josephstrunk7116]

there is a reason all military off-road trucks in the world have single tires. i bet you'd get further with the big single tires with low air pressure (in your video you dont see the sidewalls flexing at all) heavy duty snow chains and a bit of weight on the back.

[@1994Nic1994]

I would be curious to know if taking the tire pressure way down would help gain you more traction with and without the dually wheels and tires. I know airing down helps alot for traction but id be curious as to how buch of a difference it would make fornthe 7 ton getting around

[@BrianHurry]

Just so you know whatever vehicle is hooked higher will always win the tug of war. That is because the chain will lift the back end of the opposing vehicle up off the ground causing it to lose at least 50% of its grip. On a proper tug of war the rope would be as low as possible to the ground with each vehicle having some sort of drop-down mechanism to make this possible

[@bowwiz]

[@pdzh]

Its a crazy set up you got here. I think you should try different tore patterns. Mud is nit that good with that tire pattern
