I have an 07 hoe with 136k. Only uograde is cold air intake and im waiting for black bear to send me my files for the tune.

Whether its wet or dry my tires will not spin. Only in the snow. Ive tried to hild the brakes and spin them but no luck. Am i the only one?

Part of it is likely the factory tune, the other part is that you're trying to overcome a lot of inertia and friction all at the same time. I bet you only have 3.08 gears?

Whatever the stock gears are I believe. I just though when I first got the truck a year ago it was easyto spin the tires in the rain. I domt take off fast often but I thought it used to at least in the rain. It just doesmt seem to have as kuch pick up as it used to. Hopefully the tune gives it some life back. And I thimk a catch can is next and fuel filter

Cold place in the north
Mine won't either but the wheels and tires do add to the traction and weight so that factors in a bit.


I personally would rather just have them hook up and take off vs sit and spin, that's just me though..

Dumb question but did you turn off traction control?

Yeah i turned it off. Well now i kind of feel better. I dont know it just seems slower than before. But maybe i just got used to driving a faster rental around for too long while rear end and trabsmission were getting replaced
