i made 3 pulls in 3rd 4LO with a single and they went fine. maybe not the best way but i engaged low 1600-2000 then once i let of of the clutch brought it up. not sure if this would work with all trucks some may have spooling issues at that rpm but mine came up quick.

I've never pulled a sled, but I've had my truck long enough to figure 3rd/LO would be my choice. 2nd/LO would just be rediculous and I wouldn't think 2/High would have enough gear reduction to not smoke the clutch. But I'm no genious.

Depends on your axle gears, tires, clutch, and power. I run 3.54 gears, 33" tires, and all I ever run is 2nd high. I am looking to switch to 4.10's before next year though.
