Can't burnout

Damn shame if the rear end can't handle a burn out. What kind of truck rear end is it then. I used to burn out in my old camaro yrs ago. Nothing but a peanut. I do plan on rebuilding the trans tho. Got plans for the truck. That's what was left of the old camaro. Long story.

Its not that the rear end cant handle it. The issue is that it was not designed for that. Your tires will become bald very quickly too. Do you blame the tires for being a "shitty design".

Don't be a crabby patty. It's once a yr for the 4th of July . It's hot out have beer and relax. Lol getting new tires aren't a issue.

Here is a rear end that is specifically built for burning out. If you want to do that stuff on a regular bases, you need to use parts that are designed for it.

No, that’s built for traction. At the track you roll through water to spin them up to build heat for additional traction. Too many dry burn outs would explode the rear end from sudden stops with that much tire. Looks like a regular 9 inch ford rear end.

Not crabby patties, just old farts that were once young and did the same silly stuff and broke parts in the process. In my case, blew the carrier of a 10 bolt G80 apart at 72000 miles in a 98 k1500

 

If you absolutely must do so.

1) With the engine running, press AND HOLD the traction control button until not only it says "Traction Control Off" in the DIC, keep holding the button until it says stabilitrack off.

2)Put the truck all the way down in 1st gear.

3) Left foot on the brake, right foot has the accelerator on the floorboard.Press hard on the brake, but just hard enough for the front brakes to hold the truck in place.

 

The rear tires should begin to spin slowly and then speed up as they get hot.

 

If you still can't get them to break loose, then armor-all on the tire treads should get them started. Just make sure you burn it all off before you try to drive somewhere.

 

I advise you to do none of this. It endangers you, your trucks drivetrain, and bystanders. That being said, have a happy Independence Day.

What I have done in the past to break the tires loose with my 2012 Sierra is press and hold the traction button until StabiliTrak and traction message says Off for both dropped my tranny into M and selected 1st gear and put it in tow/hual mode and one foot on the break and the other foot 3/4 of the way to the floor and let it roast the tires!

 

Hope this helps! :thumbs:

Don’t do it, if you have a g80 locking read end, it’s not made for such things.

Ditto on not doing it if you have the G80.

Tire size is stock for the 18in rim option. I'm running dynapro atms. Not sure what rear end I have but I know in running 3.73 gears

    • Not what I said but I can work with it anyway. Complete combustion produces CO2 and H20. When it's cold enough you can 'see' it as water vapor but it is always there and more so the better the tune up. It's physics, not an argument. In a cold motor when the cylinder jacket is below the condensation temperature the water goes to the pan and not the PCV system. Heating the oil moves it from liquid to vapor where it is removed by the PCV system. When and how much depends on temperatures. Of the air, the water and so on. It has little to with the humidity. Water is a combustion product.  
    • I can only guess as well that something was clicked on that brought you to the half ton choices by accident. By all means try again and chose the 3500 and sort out that its the cab and box configuration you want and choose four wheel drive ( rather obvious to have a transfer case ) and to make sure the dually isn't chosen. I find or at least did a couple of years ago when I was sifting through the options that it would sometimes jump ahead after choosing the series of truck and in this case 3500 and skip some of the other initial configuration choices and have to watch the heading bar and sometimes back up by choosing the first in the series of option break downs. I think sometimes the computer will remember items that were last chosen and skip over the first part. Anyway go through it all and depending on the trim level chosen and I think the LT is one that may fall into that where the option of having the 4 high auto transfer case can be chosen, where as a High Country doesn't show that option as it just comes with the fancier ( not necessarily better though in terms of potential problems ) transfer case but for sure both transfer case choices are equipped with high and low range in the HD truck segment. Like Newdude said who works at a dealership, its the half tons that are the ones that will come with the single speed unless certain options or trim levels are chosen that add the two speed transfer case but as your looking at an HD, you don't have to worry about that hot mess.    One item that at least didn't show up and not sure if it does yet or not in the HD options on the manufactures pubic website is the upfitter in cab switch option if one is desiring that. Unfortunately its not wired in at the factory but the panel with the switches is on the dash but the wiring harness to be installed gets tossed under the rear seat to be installed by whomever after the fact to complete the installation. 
    • Yesterday we brought home a 6yr  old Havanese dog from a nearby SPCA.  We've had her for 24 hours and we are delighted with how well she is adjusting to her new home.  It  was a huge decision to adopt a dog at this stage in our lives but we believe we made the right choice!   it was reported that her first 6 years were ones of neglect.  I think she's already realizing her life is going to get a whole lot better...  so is ours!    
    • I thought I was building a HD 3500 srw, maybe I was lost.
    • No doubt, I definitely agree with you. However, considering the 6.2 and 3.0 have been catastrophically failing with very little miles, I figured I would put trouble free. I’m at 18,4xx and still not a single issue.
