The trailers do not propel the vehicle and usually do not have brakes. Trailers designed for use behind current Military vehicles use the same radial tire as the primary vehicle.

NDTs

Post by jeeper50 »

I have read lots of comments on the NDCCs and NDT about wet roads and ice, I experianced some slippage with NDTs when accelerating and cornering but attibuted it to the lockers in both axles and their bad road manners. I didn't have any problems stopping, but respect all opinions. They are not designed or intended to be good road tires, as long as everyone realizes that when they use them then we probably don't need to have Government labels affixed to them- except for the occasional idiot that trys to use them and can't stop on wet roads.

Just my $.02
