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. ---------------------------------------------        That shit about made me wet my pants........wire ties from bread bags, lol.

This is a public forum where a person should be allowed to speak their mind on the hot topic issues of our sport without being censored because other may disagree.Thank You! I think you made my point rather effectively.  -AhabP.S. I don't need any trailer balls, I can drag body. 

If you did that to prove a point, you picked the wrong topic to talk about.  Regardless of who you are or who your with, to stand back and say dragging trailer balls are ok is about the dumbest damn thing ive ever heard.  In no way shape or form should you stand back and let someone make a horrible mistake as putting trailer balls on there truck. Not only would they be risking somebody elses life they could possible be risking yours or you families.  So yea, props to everybody that said no.  Next time you wanna prove a point, pick something like shaving door handles, that way its nobodys business and your not picking a topic where doing something could get someone hurt.

sjudd86 - Andy simply made a thread to prove a point, the point was proven. He never once stated it was right, so there is no need to play Dr. Phil and attempt to coach him on what is right and what is wrong.   In regards to your "shaving my doors" comeback: If I’m involved in a roll over accident, and the roof is crushed, and because I shaved my doors, the responding paramedic cannot open the door, what happens then? Everything you do, there is a risk to take, some over look it, and others are cautious. If you have some time, take a peek at Andy's profile, You'll then understand that this thread was just a point prover, and nothing serious, just an experiment. You got worked up over nothing cupcake.

I'm sure this topic will end up deleted, Isn't that what happened to the train horn one?

doublepumped - The point Andy was trying to prove is that people will talk negative about anything on this site. I understand that.  All "Dr. Phil" was saying was dont post a rediculous thing as, ei .. trailer balls and not expect negative feedback, i would expect that and so should he. So bad example. In regards to " shaving my doors" if you scroll up the page and read once more. I stated "In no way shape or form should you stand back and let someone make a horrible mistake as putting trailer balls on there truck. Not only would they be risking somebody elses life they could possible be risking yours or you families."  If you want to make the mistake of shaving your door handles and endangering yourself! then so be it! Dont put someone else in that such danger.  Maybe I should make a better example for you, euro taillights. they arent going to get someone hurt! Is that better for you? I have taken the time to look at his profile, and i know where he was going with this thread. I just feel it was a bad example.  And I did not get worked up "cupcake". Youd know it if I was

Alright let me get it straight. I figured everyone was witty enough to figure this out, but I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea.  First DON'T EVER DRAG TRAILER BALLS! They are retarded and can hurt someone. I made this thread because yesterday a thread was up that asked about train horns. Many people on this site chimed in and stated which brands they had and the experience they had with them. In addition, many people chimed in and said that train horns are dangerous, much like the trailer ball issue, and this individual should not by the horns at all because they are annoying. People were stating opinions without anyone getting hurt. Apparently someone felt it was necessary to edit the thread and remove all of the negative comments which did not support the purchase of the horns.  I disagree with what happened. They is an OPEN FORUM where we as innovators and customizers all have a right to an opinion. Everyone that posted on this thread had no problem voicing their opinions and that's awesome. I feel better now. I'm going to the store to buy some cupcakes now , I just got a craving for them for some reason.
