clutcherator	Any posibility that your clutch is letting lose? That will make you bounce. Reply Quote

maybe red	Try running more air pressure. Raise it about 1 lb. at a time and see whar happens. We found more air pressure helps. The old adage a flat ball won't bounce don't work for tractor pulling. Reply Quote

thinkerer	If the tractor isn't carrying the front end when this happens, try moving some weight to the rear, especially if you have much weight in the middle of the tractor. Personally, I don't like running a 20.8 below 18 psi, but that's just my experience and opinion. Good suggestions above also. Reply Quote

The 666 I am involved with had a NASTY bounce towards the end of the track. Would throw you out of the seat. I run a 20.8X38 radial and started to add air pressure, Got to 22psi and the bounce stopped, I also found that the clutch pedal return spring was too light and when the first bounce happened the pedal would move enough to disengage the clutch. HD spring helped a lot also... Good luck..
