Flat-Spotting
I have a '78 F250 with the original tires. Problem is that they are bias ply and flat spot like crazy. It took 30 miles of shaky driving this weekend for the truck to smooth out.
Question is: Is there anything that I can do besides blocking the truck up to keep this from happening. Truck will probably sit until next spring. Are there any pads, etc. I can put under the tires? Thanks.
