Yep, when pulling or carrying " overloads" prayer is always good ... but
do make sure the tires have enough air to be round with the load on .. a
healthy tire is ok for a few hours at 60-70 psi; if they are half square,
the tire will deflect as it turns and build up heat ... and too likely to
come apart ... very bad situation.
If 70 lbs doesn[t make them round, maybe the load is just too much.
just some trivia, ken campbell, partly flat in Iowuh.
