Re: 4-wheel drive trouble

Reduce the traction of either the front or rear tires. Or get a stronger transmission. As rookies we just went with two wheel/castors and didn't mess with 4 wheel. Put more weight on one end maybe? ALOT MORE. Shrink your distance between your front and rear wheels. Gear down Front/rear slightly less than the Rear/Front. Flip the Gears in the Tranny so you are geared a lot lower. (kit tranny)
