There was a local truck pull tonight. It was only a mile away so I just had to go. Unfortunately there wasn't much there. Several broken driveshafts and one transfer case. There were a few Dodge 5.9 guys. One had a '91 2wd. He just wanted to see what it would do. It wouldn't pull the sled 10'. Another had lots of smoke. He wisely shut it down when it started to hop. He would have been another driveshaft victim if he hadn't. Another 5.9 was making a nice pull and getting it all to the ground. The rear u joint let go with a bang.
The most imipressive truck there was an older gas Ford. I have seen it pull before. It kicks butt, and I'm not a Ford fan. I don't know how big the motor is but it has lots of grunt. The chasssis on that truck seems to work so much better than anyone elses. I don't know what he has done, but it works! There was another local that just wanted to play. He had an '03 Duramax dually with just rear wheel drive. He was doing fine until his stock reciever insert broke. He wisely didn't put another hitch in and try again. If you are going to break a new hitch at the local discount store would be a cheap fix.
