legrizz 10-24-2005, 05:57 PM Buddy of mine wants to hook up and see who will pull who. He has a 05 6.0 CC SB FX4 with mbrp duals and a cold air intake (not sure of the make) and stock tires. He also has a Superchips tuner but agreed to take it out for the pull. My truck is bone stock except for 285 BF's A/T's. Should I tuck my tail or take him up on his offer? I have only had the truck for a few days and I am not sure how I would stack up. partsguy662 10-24-2005, 06:03 PM Are we talking pulling a sled or pulling hooked up back to back here?? legrizz 10-24-2005, 06:08 PM hooked up back to back. either on concrete or on dirt. Sorry. Cumminsdriver 10-24-2005, 08:55 PM You would both have the power, but he will weigh more, so he will probably pull you. Eric TeddyBear 10-25-2005, 12:28 AM Hookin back to back proves nothing at all. Doesnt matter how much power you have, Its depends more on traction and weight. partsguy662 10-25-2005, 12:41 AM Hookin back to back proves nothing at all. Doesnt matter how much power you have, Its depends more on traction and weight. I gotta agree with that statement..No sense doing this really.. Racing I can see, sled pulling I can see...Pulling hitch to hitch is just pointless...

Me and Teddy Bear in the above post hooked back to back, and it was a blast no doubt. He had 1k lbs of suitcase weights, and i was empty and we both just sat and dug 4 holes in dirt. Eric smokinLBZ06 11-17-2005, 06:13 PM Turn the torsion bars down, get a set of air bags for the back, throw on some weight, raise the hitch, spool it up and kick that fords a**!!:grd: joispoi 11-23-2005, 08:45 PM air down the tires, put a water bed in the back and put it in 4Lo... you could pull with a 4 banger with that setup. This is a question of traction more so than power.... Keep in mind this is completely worthless unless you video tape it.;) stoneg 11-23-2005, 09:02 PM Hitch to hitch can just be fun sometimes between friends. Your absolutely right. It is fun! I've seen alot of torn up turf, as well as a bunch of broken chains/straps. Before you ruin a $50,000 truck, take a look at your rear drive shaft. To me it looks huge, but its damn sure not made for pulling something thats trying to pull you. I tell my buddy with an 04 F250 PS CC 4x4 LB with the superchips on 35's that I will pull him all over the place, although we haven't done it. I have however smoked him in a side by side race. Both of us have chips, Both of us have 4" Exhaust, he has the airraid intake, and I just have the drop in K&N filter.:boxing: stoneg 11-23-2005, 09:07 PM Turn the torsion bars down, get a set of air bags for the back, throw on some weight, raise the hitch, spool it up and kick that fords a**!!:grd: Raising your hitch is an awesome idea...when you are pulling him your taking weight off of his rear tires, and he is putting more on your rears. Caution: When the chain or strap breaks, or heaven forbid you use tow hooks (can you say projectile) it is going high towards you, and low on his. (HEADS OR TAILS?):cussing: Bperez180 11-23-2005, 11:30 PM When you hook up to him with a rope, chain or strap. Make sure you put a tire or 2 on there so if it snaps it woun't go flying into your tailgate.:ro) | ||
