---------------------------------------------Originally posted by purpl7dueceIf you go to Harbor Freight they have a special going on right now. 15 Trailer balls for $30. You could fab up a 18 gauge piece of sheetmetal to hold em and mount em to your frame using wire tires from bags of bread. About 5 on each side should do. Then get on the freeway and drag away! Make sure you call up Surface and let them know of this legendary drag session. ---------------------------------------------Thanks for the great advice. I only have some 22ga sheet metal though. Will that work?

Come on wire ties from bags of bread that will never hold, I suggest goin and gettin some chicken wire, and what the hell throw some industrial size zipties on their just to be safe. Have fun andy!

I must say I dont appreciate all the negative posts.  I didnt ask anyones opinion, I just asked which ones are the best.

I agree with the traler balls from harbor feight, those are killer! They make some gnarley sparks.... I have tried the bread ties bfore they didnt work so well. I suggest getting some of those zip cuffs instead I mean even the most strung out tweeker cant break those. Just make sure to be safe and do it on I 10 during rush hour. ps. have fun

When the ball breaks off and hits someone behind you, I hope you get sued.  LOL. Sorry but ive seen this 100 times...

no balls,  only drag frame.  if you can't do that don't bother trying
