Plan to use the ATV Foreman 500 mostly on the and around the beach. Some road to get back. Good price but how will they work for my application?

I think they would work good, but I'd say it may depend on how loose and deep the sand is.

They will work great! I have owned them for a year now. Have used them in sand, snow, mud and everything in between. They are not the best tires for riding on pavement. I have a Rincon 680 and when mine wear down. I will buy these tires again.

I haven't used the Jack as a driver. I have a shallow well myself but have no need for a new point yet. The Jack is quite powerful but 25 feet is a long way to drive and if you run into obstructions you may start over. Let me know if it works as a driver. Sorry I wasn't more help in this area.

They are a little small for a 65 if you are going to be keeping SPS or LPS corals. If just softies, you may be good, but I would go a bit bigger unless you are putting several of the Hydros in there. Say 2 on each side and possibly 2 on the back. I know they are a bit more expressive, but if you are trying to save money go with the jabos, or if you are willing to invest, I cannot stress enough, tons tons tons better, the Vortechs. I use Vortechs 2 MP40 controlled with my apex; I know they are very expressive but they are worth every penny in comparison, especially if you have the apex controller with the wxm. This is how I have mine set up and the difference is night and day. I went from the large jabos to two Vortechs. My corals responded almost instantly. They love them. The Jabos push the water hard while the Vortechs create an undertow and are gentle so you don't blast you corals. This allows for less trash from settling on the sand bed. I can tell the most when feeding; the food never touches the sand bed, it stays floating the whole time and that is without using the feed mode. They all work different and it is to much to get into, but if you are going to build a reef tank you want to go as natural as possible and the Vortechs are the only way to go IMHO. You can sometimes find them for a good price used on ebay, and remember all ecotech equipment are able to be upgraded with a simple plug and play. 1 MP40 should do you for now and just add another later as a slave and run it at a max of 75%. If you need additional info I am happy to help.

it (the motor) is very light, but the battery that you will need is CRAZY heavy. If you put the battery in the center of the paddle boat (I remember my parents one had a space in back) it will be ok. Those batteries weigh about 50lbs. They are called deep cycle batteries and should be hooked up to a battery tender while not in use. Batteries Plus Lights helped me pick the right one and a matching tender. I use the motor on a small fishing boat only every other weekend and I have had no problem since I got the "tender". Nice lil motor, I'm very happy with it.

I had a 1992 skamper who's GVWR was similar. They worked just fine for what I had. When popped out, mine was much larger than the average camper at 24 ft

They're both fine for pretty much all the use most recreational off-roaders will ever have for them. But go ahead and spend the extra $5 and get the "All Cast" version (the red one). It'll live through a little more abuse, and you'll look cool fitting in with all the other guys wheeling with them mounted to their rigs in one way or another.

So far they have been great. They work well under pressure too! I have hauled many loads in excess of 1.25 tons and they did great controlling the tail over rough roads. Same with trailering. So far they have been on for 6 months and have taken a lot of punishment. As of now this will remain my choice for shocks.

Should be able to handle it. My setup included a 350rms jvc 12", 2 pioneer 6x9 60rms, and 2 pioneer 4x6 30rms without any problems.

Yes, I think so. As long as you don't go past the 500lb rating, they will work great.

Thank you for sharing your experence. sounds good for VHF. I am more into UHF myself. The UHF repeaters in my area are within 12 miles of my location, So I think It should do an above average job. Terrain considering of course. Thanks again.

We have had absolutely no problem with our wonder wheeler. We have only 50 to 75 yards of paving to pull before the beach. We have seen very little road wear. It pulls quite well on sand and would probably pull better with larger tires. All n all the Wonder Wheeler is worth the money. Hope this has been helpful. Bill

None of them deal well with sand.....you have to take it apart and change bearings....lots of WD40

Will work very well over many types of terrain for the first few (3) uses. But it breaks quickly and with only 30 day return window....good luck

I've taken them fishing with me where I've done a lot of walking over pretty rough terrain and had no problem. Don't ride motorcycles so I don't know but I think they'd be just fine. They're ruggedly built although you might want to tape the lens covers down while travelling.

Bill P. I just back from a 3000 mi. adventure, 09 1500 silverado,pulling a 2500#7x14 single axel trailer with a 1976 Harley FLH. Truck had 900# of gear and total trailer close to 4000#. These Overload springs worked great! Yes, air systems are nice,but for the money you cant get a better deal. I had to monkey around a bit with the set-up but I would start at about half of full tension (full being 1" from truck spring at the U-bolts on overload spring.) see how that works for you. Remember,one-quarter inch in tension is a big ajustment and make sure both springs are the same tension and location on the truck.Worked great ! Bill P.

Works good on dirt, for Sand you would need a set of paddle tires which are designed specifically for sand. Other wise it will probably just keep getting stuck.

Hi, no problems. everything is fine. It has a good ligth but not as good as the over $1,000 better quality ones. but performs great for my use in offroad.
