i love my mini spool i have had it under my 7deuce since i got it in 08 haven't had any problems with it at all and my truck is mainly street driven only thing i wouldn't do is haul a big load with them they might snap an axle but i have hauled 3 tons in the back and that was about all i dared with there being no slippage but for a DD or hot rod minispools are a cheap and easy way to go IMHO

Thanks for all the responses and ideas, I hadn't heard of the brake trick and I will definitely try that the next time I have to. I really wish I had some decent tires and as winter gets closer and the ground gets wetter I am definitely going to have to put some weight on the rear end. I'll get some sandbags or something. The only two mods I knew about that would satisfy my needs of the DD was a limited slip or locker, air or electric, but all of those options were quite expensive. I do tow some pretty good weight with it every now and again so I don't think I'll be putting in any type of spool.
i ain't rite

Idk, sounds like a poor excuse to me. I've been posting from my phone for years. First my BB now my iPhone..... I seem to do just fine.
