with that heavy rear end and three 100lb bags of concrete mix should cure wheel spin :lol: :lol: :lol:

I would seriously consider some wheelie bars....all the extra weight along with the 4.10 gears just might put that thing on the bumper.

as long as were adding all this extra weight , put two bags of concrete under the hood then ya wont need the wheelie bars :P :P

Seriously though I think you are going to work your hind end off and not be happy with the end result. I would sell that rear end and buy either gears or a whole other rearend that is not so big...but you have to do what the budget allows.

my first drag car was 1970 c10 pickup, 12 bolt 1/2 ton rear, 410 gear , good set of axles , ran the crap out of it and never broke. lite, cheap ,strong.

Hey, txhunter69,

no one is making fun of you, it's just that you are heading in the wrong direction and people are trying to help you from making that mistake. Sorry if i made you think that, but really people hook trucks like yours all day long, without going to extremes.

Zip.
