All fun and games aside. We got work to do. 19 days away :eek:

19 days away :eek:

I hope we come up with something to keep the front end down. To stop the tow-in and eliminate all the bent crap. 1300 lbs hanging doesn't seem to eliminate it.
Those Boggers are just brutal on the front-end.

Steve the way i have always understood this. If u had longer traction bars it will transfer weight alot better. And do away with the bounce. Can u give me a history lesson on this?

Bingo! Kurt you are dead on.

If the traction bars come all the way up to under the cab, you'll eliminate a bunch of the front end dancing. Ecc has never had any problems with hops and his bars are about come up to around the tranny/t-case cross member.

Steve, the boggers are likely hooking too good at certain points on the run and that is causing some problems also.

Just for the record, We had my front-end completely locked down with a clever device that Todd and I came up with. There was absolutely no way the front could lift. It did not work like we thought it would. It was ugly.
As a side note, I did not push that little yellow button that say"s E-locker on it, before my pull. I was trying a lot of new stuff this pull and got out of my routine. Dumb Ass me. Anyhow, live and learn. No excuses. A Ford out pulled me and congrat to Troy.

I will have a check-list pasted over the Pyro Guage before my next pull.
