How long you had the marder ??

Have you re-packed the diff with grease ?

Mine was a couple of weeks old and as i said the only mod was an X Can.

No mate there rubbish. The tread wont last long but before you get to that stage youll
spin the squares out of them.


DAVE.

If you want some on road grip then look for a set of rims and tyres off an FG truck.
