wheels spinning

[shanine77]

so i purchase the dlc heavy package,and and max my heavy cargo bar to max, everythng is fine far as pulling and stuff but when i get to a hill from a town getting on the interstate from the exit it pulls until i get almost on the top of the ramp and i loose traction and just sits there and spin is there something im doing wrong?

I would suggest turning on dif lock.

ive done that already dont help but let me say this my truck is modifyed like its 6x4 lowered with the aliuminum alloys wheels i got out of the work shop would that make a difference? do i need to put stock rims and wheels back on? i did that and the traction bar didnt move so i didnt proceed with it just need some help cause i love the hevay hauling just cant get up the ramp

[TruckerKid]

Hmm, not sure, you would probably have to back up and try to make a run with as much speed as you can to get up the ramp.

[shanine77]

well let me ask u, im sure u have the heavy cargo package do u have that problem?

If you're running a truck with a lowered chassis, it may be that the trailer is bottoming out as you come over the top of the incline?

[shanine77]

ok will put it stock and see will let u know if that works

Are you using a vanilla truck or a modded one? Also, are you sure your trailer didn't get stuck on a rail or anything like that?

[Long Ago [Linux]]

If you have a 6x4 chassis I have never had that happen, except when I missed a turn with a normal farm tractor load, and when I tried to turn around in the dirt, the trailer got hung up on a curb. Enabling differential lock (V) just spun all my wheels forward or reverse. Had to call a tow truck.

For exits that ramp up with heavy cargo DLC you want to keep enough momentum to get over the hump, but not so much that you miss the stop or turn. Do you have some low rider mod?

im using a 389 exhd i had the chasis lowered but raised it back up. So i tried it again just now and went the route it told me to which was in the mountians and got to a really steep hill down shift accordingly to pull up and got to a certian spot and the wheels just started spinning and i was stuck on the road. I dont understand whats goin on with the engine,♥♥♥♥♥♥ and all i have im pulling it no problem its just the steep hills is where im catching hell ive tried everything and its not working. For ur question ragequit inc its a vanilla truck but ive put u know reg stuff on it like lights the alcoha rims but everything else is just small stuff in the workshop and my trailer isnt getting stuck on anything its the main hwy im getting stuck on just on the steep hills to where i have to downshift to pull at like 25 mph and such.

The only time I've noticed wheel spin was in ETS2 trying to climb out of the quarries with a full trailer in the rain...

Never had that problem. Try it on a profile without any mods at all. Just use one of the cheat mods in the workshop and create a profile where you have plenty of money and xp. Then unsubscirbe from the cheat mod. That gives you a profile with no mods. Then try it on that profile.

I suspect it is a mod.

Edit: This is a good cheat mod to use for a new profile. I use it for a test profile. Just activate it when you set up your profile. Then park a trailer for the xp, wait until the bank offers enough to buy a truck, buy a truck and then deliver a trailer for the money. Then de-activate the mod and then unsubscribe from the mod. There is your profile with plenty of money and xp.

Mod issue. Two things immediately come to mind - Either your lowered truck is causing ground contact somewhere along the combination or else a physics mod.

I only use MexUsCan map mods, hauled all heavy cargo with a stock W900 6x4, 625hp engine, eaton 18 gears. A few times if using the Real Automatic transmission, if stop in the hill may stall, and loose all traction. Use parking brake, rev the engine, let go the break and the truck moves. I do like using the secuential, when in the same situation, just gear down to 2 or 1 gear and slowly get up the hill.

As many others post before me, most likely the culprit is a mod.
