To understand this correctly, you are saying that your drive chains are tighter on the bottom side than the top? If so, then the only thing I can envision is that our tire pressure may be lower on the inner tires, higher on the rear tires. This would be due to the radius of the tire being slightly larger on the higher pressure ones, a slight imbalance, but the sprockets/chains are the same on each axle. Something has to tighten somewhere, similar to running an engaged 4x4 around corners on dry ground, the distance front and rear wheels traveled is different. Just for the test, drive it backwards a bit and see if they loosen off. |
