Hi Tim, There's a real quick, cheap, easy fix to your problem. Lose the front weights. The front is too heavily ballasted, and it's actually taking traction away to push those front wheels through the loose ground. Yeesh, there must be over 600 pounds on there. You should have adaquate weight on the rear now. The 14.9x28 DynaSlips should do the job, but they're nothing extra in terms of traction. I'd definitely take the front weights off, and see how that fares out. Good luck. Rod
