Truck Pulls

[Stevens08]

Gents,

 

I understand that this may be frowned upon by some or all guys in here, but I have grown up watching truck pulls all my life, and ever since I bought my 6.2 Max Tow ive been itching to take it out to see what it can pull at the truck pulls. I'm nevous that I will break something. I know that its really bad for the trucks, and I only intend on doing it once (i know thats all it takes to break) but I was looking for any friendly advice or opinions? Im not 100% sure yet that I want to do it, I just would enjoy doing so.

 

Any experiance here would be great!

if you enjoy tearing your truck up then go for it.. also with those tires you have on there you wont get ANY traction at all... not to mention at the stock height of your truck you wont be able to clear the optimal size tire youd need..

 

i dont think it would hurt anything to try it 1 time.. but please take a video if you do

Up here at the buck county Pulls in PA. I tried but it was a diesel only thing. I said we'll I'm boosted and awd. (03' whipple charged ss silverado) Why don't you let me show these guys what gas engines can really do!! Haha but I also have the 6.2 max tow and I swear I could pull a building down! I say go for it! I know most drop the front suspension as far as they can go and utilize 4wd adjust trying to get the weight transfer down. But for full potential I would even get a second tune for just pulling changing shift points and what not. Good luck!

Dave, it's a shame you pulled with the SS

Bucks County! Im in Berks :-) Haha. How'd you do with the SS? Im not going to go all crazy and lower the front end and do all of that. Im more so curious to see what it can do as is. I will however change wheels and tires, and be adding a 2.5" lift shortly. Changing shift points seems like an ideal thing, but I dont want to spend that much on it. If I go for the pull shall I pull 1st gear in 4High? or do I let it shift into 2nd in 4 high?

Haha bringing up a past thread to bring

Up some bad news. Just got a phone call from the kids dad that bought my truck. Said he totaled it. So sad. I guess another one bites the dust.
