Be careful about doggin your truck like they do they have full pulling tranny's and alot of motor work done. Just to keep that in mind. But if you want to you can do trash dumpster pulls....we have done that before. Its actually fun.

 

My buddy here at work just bought a new "Powder Stroke" ;D..........I challenged him to "bumper-up" with my tow strap...he ran with his tail between his legs back to momma!

Anyone wanna place a bet who would win?????????? 8)

 

I ask people all the time if they want to bumper pull but they say no because im a diesel..... :

 

my friend has a 99 2500 V10 and he said he would bumper pull me. on dirt or concrete. he has a small lift with bald 34 inch mickey thompsons and I have a 6 inch lifted Diesel 2500 with 37 inch SSR Swampers. who would win?

 

V10:
Horsepower- 310 hp @ 4100 rpm
Torque -450 ft. lbs. (617 N.m) @ 2400 rpm

CTD:
Peak Torque 460 lb-ft (from 1600 to 2700 rpm)
Advertised Power 235 hp @ 2700 rpm


These R just #'s .......maybe on o' the "vets" could tell us! ;D

 

Yeah but when your pullin all ya really have to worry about is the torque isnt it?

 

Mainly.

 

Wouldn't he have a disadvantage being lower...
Less traction.

The traction is gonna be the same. Whether he has a 6 " lift or is slammed to the weeds... the tires still meet the road in the same location.
Bald tires will make quite a difference.

higher hitch has the advantage (lifted truck). the angle of the strap exerts a force pulling the higher hitch downward and exerts a force lifting the lower hitch. advantage goes to the one that is higher. But, this contest is all about weight and traction and has little to nothing to do with power. Haul a load up a hill to see who has the most pulling power.

Thats what I thought JSTULL.

4x4

 

a couple months, two kids i knew did a pull off on dirt. the 6 speed HO with an EZ had a 4.5" lift with SSR's, and the stoke auto powerstroke had a little bit bigger lift. the tires were more of an all terrain...flatter and wider; mud tires don't do well on dirt for competition. sure, the CTD has a lot more torque, but he had no chance in the dirt...got pulled all over the place.

do the trailer towing up a mountain.
