common points of failure for pulling trucks?
What are some common points of failure for pulling trucks?
transmission head gasket / studs u-joints differential ?? |
All of the above.
|
That's what I was thinking, if it moves it breaks, if it doesn't move, it bends........
|
I have a friend that use to pull and about every time he pulled, he just found the new weakest link.
|
-TC or clutch slipping and overheating to the point of no return
-Spider gears -tailshaft on t-case in the 2nd gens, 3rd gens are pretty strong -u-joint at the rear pinion- very common when there are no ladder bars on the truck -axle shafts -pinion shaft or ring and pinion breaking together -intercooler boots exploding -driveshaft tube twisting |
I have blown intercooler boots,destroyed a new 3850 dual disk in 4 pulls,broke two sets of hardened axle shafts for a Dana 80. that is all so far this year

Wow sounds like something I don't want to get into now. Thought it would be cool to enter street class pulling with my diesel but it is more a daily driver.
