nice run. I just hooked my truck to a sled for the first time last weekend. pretty fun. How do you set your truck up for pulling? tire pressure? weight? any tricks you wanna share?

Well all my parts I have made myself. Suspnsion blocks for the back. They're just steel blocks thar bolt into where the stock rubber stop pads are. Keeps the springs solid. U don't need suspension in the rear. Tierod sleeves in the front. Drop the torsion bars all the way down. Weight just depends on classes. U can see my weight bar is empty on this run. And tires...well as low as I can get without them being just crazy bulging. And as for secrets...I don't have many. Pull it in 1st and wot right off the bat. U want ur tires to spin. I run about 5500 rpm untill the tire spin almost stops and u reach tracion then shift to 2nd. And don't let outta it for anything unless u start hopping bad!
