Buddy of mine wants to do a tug of war. I have never done one i have just pulled down trees with my truck. So i get the slipping of the clutch in 4low 3rd gear. I want to do it on dirt so i dont break any thing and so does he. I was wandering on a bench race who would win. My 03 5sp 4X4 SRW or his 06 auto 4X4 DRW.

I also plan to put 1k in the bed with the axle blocked and a 4in UP hitch might even go to my 6in up hitch.

 

auto gives him advantage... i'm guessing you mean 6x6 for his truck also an advantage... his truck weighs more... another advantage for him.. and last but not least.. is he lifted???

 

He's got two more wheels on the ground, usually means more bite, but then again it is more dispersement too.......

 

air your tires down, get your hitch high and get the rearend solid with as much weight in the truck as possible.

 

He is stock height. I will have a ranch hand up front might even put some weights up there, the axles blocked, a tool box full of sand and if i can if i can find a 4in up hitch i will use that my 6in up hitch might look conspicuous.

 

use 1st gear low range and start out real easy. heck just stay on the brakes till he strarts spinning then let out on the clutch. but use first gear!!!!
