Re: How about some pics of High Performance haulers.
 
dang.. is there really that much room under there for tires?? without narrowing the frame?? are those custom offset wheels, or is the rearend narrowed?? on either trucks

Re: How about some pics of High Performance haulers.
 
i forgot to add that i narrowed the rearend 6'' total the wheels are 15x10 with a 5'' backspace i can fit a 15x12 with a 7'' backspace which is what i intend to go to when the money gets right again.

Here are the Plans:
http://www.jegs.com/

Jegster Ladder Bar Crossmembers
Jegster Ladder Bar Crossmembers #550-40010

Jegster ladder bar crossmembers are stronger per pound, because the included
braces allow the main crossmember to be made of lighter material and allow increasing
the weld area to the frame rails. Made from 1.5'' x .134'' wall mild steel tubing.
56'' Extra Wide
Kit includes:

(1) 56'' crossmember with 2-1/2'' center drop.
(4) .188'' thick, 3-hole brackets with 3/4'' holes.
(2) bracket webs.
(2) 1-1/4'' x 18'' steel tube braces.
(2) bolts and lock nuts.

Competition Engineering Ladder Bar
Competition Engineering #247-2006
Increase traction by eliminating wheelhop

Ladder Bar Features

33" long
Best for 100"-115" wheelbases
Made of 1" O.D./.156" wall tubing
3/4" forged rodends threaded directly into tubing
Front end braces prevent rodends from bending & breaking
Double 360° housing brackets withstand brutal loads
http://www.jegs.com/images/photos/200/247/247-2006.jpg

Competition Engineering Floating Axle Housing Mount
Competition Engineering #247-2030

The use of ladder bars with a leaf spring rear suspension requires that the rear
end housing not be rigidly attached to the leaf spring. This is because the
ladder bars and the front half of the leaf spring establish two different and competing
centers of rotation for the axle housing. A floating housing mount eliminates the binding and
allows the housing to rotate properly.

Re: How about some pics of High Performance haulers.
 
Its pretty good with the 600's. It has the Lunati Voodoo 292/300 Roller cam and believe it or not im still using my power brakes. lol I did live in Fort Smith, Ar. and I could drive it anywhere I needed to. Now I live in San Antonio and Im now looking for a newer truck. I put the Predators on for a weekend and those are AMAZING, but not very streetable. I hope I can get it to the track pretty soon. Im going to replace fuel system before I take it.

Re: How about some pics of High Performance haulers.
 
Man Im not sure. Could have been I know it got passed around for about 6 months. One guy bought it and he was told that it had a 454 in it and he couldnt get it to run right. So my buddy bought it from him and we pulled tha motor and it was a .030 over 396 with a 454 balancer and flywheel. So I ended up with it. When I got the motor it was apart. I put new bearings in it and put it back together with the right stuff.

New to the site bad a** trucks man
lots of great advise.
Mine is under construction. Blew the 468 when the nos button stuck beside the trailer purging the nos through the motor getting ready to swap bottles.no more showing off purging the nos in the motor. On a good note this is the reason for a bigger motor.

Thanks for the kind words, just building for bracket racing, hopefully in the mid to high 8 sec range, but i did overbuild the chassis just in case i want to step it up later,
what do you have for power in that 62, it is fine,

Thanks , the chassis is all home built, i have a guy that builds dragsters that has done most of the work, he had a jig at his shop ,we got it rolling there and i am trying to finish it at home now, still have several more bars to add but i want to get the tin finished first,
