hey guys i am searching for the best things 2 drag. i have my taco setup with tow balls in the back with a full plated frame w/ 3/8 steel. are there any tow balls that last longer than others? i tried the ones from wal mart tonight and went through a whole set before the end of the night and ended up dragging bumper. do the stainless ones last longer? i plan on making a trip to the steel yard tomorrow 2 see what i can find, in the meantime what do all of you guys drag?
this topic here is going to start a war! lol so heres my opinion....
if you have a bumper drag the dog shit out of it before you put a roll pan on it... OR drag frame.... it only cost money! and we wouldnt be mini truckers if shit wasnt intended to break! lol so ummm yea oh yea really important... if you drag frame please relocate your gas tank if it isnt already
Please get some thick plate and weld that to drag. I have heard to many horror stories about trailer balls breaking and becoming missles to the less fortunate.
I drug a possum about fifty yards or so til he finally rolled out from under my truck and then just walked away. I don't know what he was holding onto under there but it almost made the girl riding with me cry. Funny shit.
i drag titanium . . . but i cant drag the frame or i will snap my drive shaft but if you can drag frame i say drag the piss out of it and like these fellas said just weld some thick plate to it and have fun wit it
If you decide to put plates on the bottom of your frame, make sure they span the whole thing, otherwise when the get thin they will push through the frame rail when it's hot. Guys who like balls are... Just drag the frame rails man.
