Tires and Wheels problem
1995 Dodge Ram 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual

I use my dodge ram, diesel, in a coffee plantation in Honduras, Central America. The roads are on hill sides, dirt roads and steep. On rainy season I have problems driving on slippery roads, the car just won't move on a bit of slippery mud! eventhougth it is a 4x4!! is it because of the dual rear tires? toyota's 4x4 pickups do not have problems!!! Can i take one wheel off the dual rear and use it single like toyota's? is it because is too heavy up front? or because of the wheel base being too long? i have tried mud terrain tires, 215/85-16 but is the same....no go! when i got the truck, because of its size i though it was the answer to my hauling problems, i could move more cargo than what i move with my toyotas, but, boy! was i wrong!!
your comments por favor.
