Thread: Slow conquest in the water

    Slow conquest in the water

    hello, I am new to argo world and have a couple of newbie questions.

    On what side should I put my tires to go faster in the water?

    I think they are on factory location.

    here's a picture if you want to take a look at it.


    thanks

    That is the correct side. The Rawhide III tires are just a slower tire in the water compared to some of the chevron tires or newer Argo tires. Nice looking conquest by the way.

    ok, thanks, It is not too bad with my 55 pound minn Kota on the back. I have made a custom engine support that connect to the hitch receiver, but it hit on the rocks sometimes, I think I will make another one like the Argo part that is too expensive. let me know if someone have pictures or plan to make one. I don't like to drill into the body but I think I won't have the choice.

    I did a search and I have found everything I need to build another version of my engine mount.
    thanks

    Mike hit it square, its the tires.. Rawhides suck at swimming. The Argo tires are much faster.. about a blazing 2 to 3 mph vs 1 mph.
