Why do you say that?

No offense but I haven't seen you or jeff cut better than a 1.8 60ft

There's guys on street tires in 4wd cuttin 1.7's better even, usually with suspension work though.

I guess we'll just have to see what happens though.



James I cut 1.8 on stock suspension with no mods an f up shocks with 65k on them.. I think larry meant 4wd with 2 slicks on I think?

With your slicks though right? Not street tires. I would just think with a 4wd truck would cut better 60's than 2wd with slicks, then again i don't know that much, just goin off what I've seen on here. I'm curious to see what happens though.

Can he do 4wd with 2 slicks? Wouldn't the slicks be a different diameter thAn his street tires makin it so he can't run in 4wd?

Yes that's with slicks, but I've also never got them to hook without hopping.. 4wd will deff cut better sixties.. 1.7 is prolly the best I'll ever do

damn I need to know the secret to a better than 1.7. So far the best is a 1.89 with my pyos and stock 245s.. Now thats without clamps in a susp setup. Just lowering the TB.
Hey Tyler, Im going to Midland for Thanksgiving, could you give me measurements on ur clamps? My brother works at a fab shop and gonna cut me some clamps and also a crossmember to put a 4l80e n my 99.
