Hi
My Marauder has got a new position. I was unable to get the levels straight and a friend had suggested digging under the tyre to let the tyre settle in and bring the height down a bit. Instead of this I let one of the tyres down a bit. Can anyone advise me if I will cause any damage by doing this.
Thanks

I would not lower the tyre pressure you will weaken its walls and maybe crack them------------- Animals have feelings..

If dropping the pressure is enough to level the van, it can only be out by a couple of inches. If that is the case would it not be possible to raise the opposite wheel by means of levelling blocks instead? Dropping the wheel into a hole is a solution we use at steam rallies but of course we are usually on farmland which is ploughed after the rally. Not sure a site owner would be happy to have excavations all over his site though.
