Bout to do sone math.

Say your rig (trail loaded) is 5000 lbs and stuck up to the frame.
The drag created is equal to 300% of the vehicle weight. Thats 15,000lbs. I guesstimate bohnetts at 6k-6.5k. Thats 18k-19.5k when he was stuck.

Thats retarded about the u joints. Sry i had a meeting with the big wigs. I make headlight harnesses. If that is what the problem is.

Hey guys, as some of you know, my daughter has Autism. A friend of the family has started a fundraiser to get her an IPAD and autism specific aps to help with communication and learning.

If you have a moment, check it out, and consider it. Thanks everyone!

https://fundrazr.com/campaigns/6JMZa...04e30ec6e9ba38


I plan on doing more in the future to support Autism causes...this one just happens to be personal.

Thanks
