Default The Swamper fairy
I'm getting a visit from the Swamper fairy next week WOOHOO!! fresh rubber for the Goatsack's hooves. Big skinny donuts OHHHH YEAAAHH ! chicks dig it..

Interco Super Swamper TSL Q78s - the thinking mans tyre

35.5" x 11" Very old skool design and a worthy replacment for the 34" x 9.5" swampers that found a new home after several years of abuse at several sets of hands.

Thanks to Seanypoos from abt4x4 for getting them a ticket on a cruise holiday to come move in with me

Size Q78-15LT
Ply Rating 6
Skid Depth 27/32
Tread Width 9.5"
O.D. 35.5"
C.S. 10.8"
Rim 15x6.5-8"
Max Infla. 40psi
Max Load 2750pd

1 funny thing - 50pd max load MORE than 38's. WTF ???!?!

Glad I didn't get 38's - ppl that use them must be soooooo jealous of the Q78's impressive load rating and light weight

Yeah Z-man, the NolteHed groover is already warming up after seeing the job you blokes did on the Firetruck swampies - saweet ! As usual will post every gruesome detail of the process for those suffering insomnia. Maybe a 2 hour video also...taking orders now

Even though the FT's were ONLY 38's they still looked pretty good

Well it's a 16" Q78 instead of 15" and it's on on a US military Dodge Power Wagon (at least it's all in the family!). New shoes arrive next week so this will have to do till then
