breaking other trucks with your idi

[bayou]

so on friday i went to a local 4wd park with my 4door, started climbing hills like i do in my toyota so at one point or anouther i put my foot into it and puff a little smoke, after i have my fun a guy with a lifted ext cab chevy asks if i think my ford will pull his chevy, well duh! of course it will. so we chain up (first time ever) all his buddys are telling me how easy im gonna get owned, haha ok. so i wait till i feel him pull and i eas into the throttle and start tugging, after i pull him about 5feet then hear his engine hit the revlimiter, twisted his rear d-shaft in half but i dont carry a camera, so no pics

so i want to know, what have you broke/out pulled with your idi?

What mods do you have on your rig and was the Chevy a gasser?

well i pulled a house down well more hunting cabin size.
i tested my bumper by hitting an f250 scrap truck at 35, it had a bumper size dent and a non functioning door.
i also pulled that truck around a yard with the ebrake locked up and no steering.
i pulled a broke semi about 1000 feet.
and a lot more crap

Broke alot of trucks with mine. Tore alot of hitches off too. Pulled to many out that I can't remember all

custom Y pipe, then 3.5" to a 4" stack, cut the intake restrictor out, and i had my local shop biuld a 3900 rpm injector pump, thats it,
it was a 454 powered 3500 4wd.

Pulled an old Cat diesel fifty (along with its own power) out of a mud hole with an 89 f350 idi once.

I am thinkin

Unless the 454 was missing on a few cylinders.

Why is that? There are a lot of factors besides just power involved here.
Gearing, traction and maybe the other guys drive shaft had already been hammered hard and was on it's way out regardless of what truck or maybe trail finished it.

Mine pulled a loaded 5.4 superduty with 4:30 gears backwords, and that was before the new injectors and such. It ran like dog ***** back then and had a broken rear spring..

its all about traction, i was pulling and he was spinning and digging.

my 350 powered toyota wont pull my brothers stocker AT ALL because he has more traction. (he made me look like a fool!)

The ford CREWCAB had the advantage just by shear weight. Chevys are lite

And gasser chevys are even lighter!
