Sled Pulling

50_shooter · Jul 31, 2015

I'm going to a truck and tractor pull tomorrow. Gonna see what the 6466 will do. I have never pulled this truck before. The only problem is that most people say to use 4 low 3rd and stay in that gear throughout the pull, but if I put my truck in manual 3rd, it will shift up at redline, which I think will kill my momentum. Now 4hi first seems to stay put in that gear at redline, but I don't know if that's too tall of a gear. What do you guys think? Has anyone on here hooked their 6.7 to a sled?

I pulled mine stock and 3 gear in low was about right. But with your turbo set up idk. I think 1st in high is a little fast then 3rd low.

I've always pulled in first 4 HI. You can see most of mine of YouTube. But I've also done it in 3rd low. Pretty much your choice. But I prefer 1st.

Haha. The wifi sucks here and the video froze right when takeoff happened and it left me sitting here for 5 minutes wondering WTF happened.

The exact reason I always say nothing should get hooked to the sled without a proper kill switch. Glad you got her stopped.

Kill switch gets pulled when a hitch breaks.

Yup. Cabled to the sled. My buddies uncle made one of replaceable extension cord ends its just zip tied together and cuts the power to the distributor. It works pretty well and is a neat idea using those parts.

Pulled again tonight and made a pretty good hook. Got second behind a mean dodge. 14 trucks total. Front end dribbled a little toward the end, but all in all I was thrilled.
