• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Mousses in small applications

I know what mousses are but have never used them to my knowledge but i have some questions to those that do . Has anyone tried these on small application such as a 3.00x12 tire ? I’m sure it could/would be a nightmare to install but just looking at options for my friends business . Tires would not be under power but instead they would be towed with a max speed of maybe 25mph . How about the difference in feel from possible 80to 90f and below freezing . I’ll go into more details of the use for this if asked , that’s not a problem . I just didn’t want to write a book to ask these questions . Thanks for any replies .
 
should work
depends really on speeds and distance run between cooling down as they can generate heat depending on loading- use an old front mousse and cut it to size
 
Thank you for the reply . I was thinking it should work also but was looking for opinions from others that have used mousses . I’m still a bit concerned about longevity and how it would compare to inflated tires at different temps .
 
the thing is all about the OD. and the ID of the tire its going into. like ct stated its about cutting and fitting for a mini tire. its tough if you dont have spares , I have a box full of peices with many dia from age as well as original sizes. take a tape and measure the tire id then find a compatible size mousse and cut it to fit. Nitro mousses are best for this because the part number is the od of the mousse. make sense? if not hit me up. also for an idea you can watch the Ty Davis viddy we did with him about stuffing pieces into tires, so you can see the way to do it.
