Re: Almost Pullin' Time!!!

Don`t those directionals make it tough to pull backwards?
Do those headers clear the clutch linkage?Or is it an auto?
Can`t wait to see it in action...pulling with class IMHO.

Re: Almost Pullin' Time!!!

6200 is a decent weight class for these old trucks- I like 6500 better. At 6500, you can really get a good grip & keep all 4 tires pulling with proper weight/ hitch positioning. I don't like the 5800 class- too light, it makes it tough to plant the front on a hard- biting track. My '72 with the tailgate and rear bumper removed weighs 5540 with my fat but in the seat!

Re: Almost Pullin' Time!!!

My boy likes your videos... looks like we need to go to a truck pull... He's only 1 1/2 yrs old so he hasn't been yet.... I tried to add you to myspace but it says I need to know your email....
