05 cab & chasis-likes to hop
- Thread starter Brassfield
- Start date
I wouldn't worry about front pressere. That won't make u hop. It's all in the rear. Pump them up maybe to 60 and try it. Then if it's ok each pull start letting a little out.
From what I've seen it's usually either the bars flexing or tire pressure. Long round bars are bad if you have any power.
Does it tend to start acting up when you lock up?
Will try on tire pressure.
Bars are 2x2 square 1/4" wall.. Bout 82" center to center bolt. Possible they are to long? Opinions on adding a bar to the top of the axle? seen this done on a couple dodges.
He was having clutch issues where it wouldn't release when needed to. Pretty sure we have that resolved now.
Pulled smooth this weekend, Put some 285/75r16 bfg at ko on the front, removed rear sway bar, and just a few turn and had torsions let all the way down. Now we just have to work on tuning finally :thumb:
Took it and pulled it for Brassfield this weekend, won workstock clas and put 10ft on 2nd place, which was a illegal 2.6 truck pulling in workstock.
Added about 1200lbs of weight and loaded a much bigger tune.
Left the line about 5200~
I'm not very good with the clutch on this truck as it's finicky..
Pulled 343.06

Nice run! Still looks like it wants to pull the front wheels off the ground but the results say not to mess with it.
Yea had lf off the ground most of the track. Gonna give it a little more fuel and put some weights behind the bumper since can't hang weight in w.s.
I'll upload the 2.6 video in a few
2.6 run
Only change was moved weight from bed to weight bar (1000lbs)
Didn't leave as hard and they added weight to sled

When it comes to rear air pressure & duals. A flat basketball can't bounce
