LOL, yeah we found the emptiest darkest road for the vid. I'm using trailer balls to drag on. Much cheaper and they just screw on and off for easy replacement and i don't have to drive around town with them on there all the time.

The ones in the vid i welded the nuts onto the subframe for the balls. I'm working on a steel bar to go across the front to attach 3 or 4 balls to.

ah sparks, lovely sparks...my old leaf spring hangers on my truck serve me well. is there anyway to drag the actual floorpan or rockers on a J?



Re: Draggin Vids

Floorpan i'm not so sure of, especially since the fuel lines are attached to the bottom of it I am in the process of doing a min tub on the rear tho cause my tire is hitting the fenderwell not allowing it to go down any further. So i would say rockers are a definate yes.

nope tubbing it wont lay rockers

the struts bottom out before anything touches yellow22 was the first i believe may be wrong though

ive done it too, and cut out the front and could ride around at 0 all around.

i wasnt the first but just tubbing the rear wont make you lay rockers. you have to do a lil more. and especially if your on stock easystreet stuff it will never happen. you have to hack up the mounts and stuff. been there done that.

I am on cylinders in the rear, it will lay the back no problem Customs mounts on the cylinders

Heres a pic of it and the back isn't all the way down, It tucks the stock 16's really good, it just won't go any lower because my tire hits the fenderwell.
