sounds like she is lighting good Ed. My wife and yours must have taken the same video taking classes:rofl:
Progress on the new puller

Sounds good. I like how Duramaxes vary in sound so much now. You still planning on Washington Court House this weekend?
Yes. Only one way to really test this thing and being able to get on the sled twice at one spot will help. I haven't hooked in almost 2 years and I've never hooked anything except a WS truck so the truck is only one of the variables.
I think it will light. I wasn't even pushing through the brakes yet. I was a little skirt with it on most launches since we had the pile of CVs last year. None with a second gear launch though.
Both, we broke a stocker on the sled Friday before it moved. Got the sled going in 3wd and wouldn't light. Decided to buy two new CVs from Advanced and put them in. Hooked to a truck/trailer to provide resistance and immediately broke one cleanly and then the other with very little boost. The truck hadn't even moved on any of these breaks.
We're down a little on power now I'm sure since we're downsizing the turbo and we went back to stock sticks (for now - wanted to ensure we fixed the fuel problem). Probably swap them back this winter.
It's on a trailer and will be headed for Fleece tomorrow to see what we can figure out. Johnboy, Brayden and I talked that maybe we proportion the brakes more to the back wheels to hold it so to lighten the stress on the front??
Appreciate the support. We've made it a long way but we still can't seem to get over the hump with it. I haven't pulled since last Sept. If I can't hook either day at Scheids I will be a drunken mess.Tony is hooking Friday if we get it going and then I get my chance Sat if he doesn't get in.

Are those Advanced CV's a lifetime warranty part? :rofl:
Good luck

Travis if this thing makes it down the track Saturday, it ain't coming off for a while!:rofl:
Still 10.5 - I have a line on an 8.1 dually rear end but haven't gotten a firm price on it yet.
Dont know what price range your looking at but there is a guy on COMPd right now with a AAM dually axle out of a Dodge, south of Lousiville a little bit that wants $750 OBO on it, I'd like it for my project but its a little to far for me.
Either way really.. Ed's charger is one of the first S300 2.6 race covers out there.. It's a nice charger. Turbine housing is the best kind... Custom

:beavisnbutthead::hehe: What kind of idiot would test a truck in a field? Why is your field smoother than mine?
:rofl::hug::happy2:I allowed no cameras when I did it, but 2 neighbors have since questioned my sanity.
