Hi, I'm new here so this might be the wrong place for this so bare with me. I have a 05 dodge 1500 off-road and I'm goin to the tuff-n-mud challange in MS this weekend. Thinkin about entering the tug O war and was wonderin what to put it in 4hi or 4lo. I'm thinkin 4hi but not sure. What do yall think!

 

4 low, lower psi in the tires, and about 1500 lbs in the bed

 

4 low if youre on dirt and ease into it, dont just put the pedal to the floor because your tires will spin and you will get your *** handed to you. You want to take it easy til they start spinning their tires.

 

Find a tree and practice the pull, make sure this is not a tree you'll pull out. Full size palm trees work the best but I imagine many do not have palm trees around. You'll learn really quick how to jump on the gas without spinning however with the max hp and traction. The second you spin your tires it's game, set and match. You will need to air your shoes down but depending on the shoes you are using will tell how low to go. My BFG's I put at about 10 - 15 psi before heading out off road and the traction is freaking unreal.

 

Thanks! I've done a little of pullin about 3 years ago in peoples backyards and stuff at partys but couldn't remember which i used. I was thinking I used 4hi so the tires wouldn't spin as quick cause like the bigmiah22 said start spinin for get winnin!

 

4 lo and lowest gear on your transmission as well, and pray to hell you don't draw a Diesel truck!!!

 

Yeah don't want to pull aginst a diesel! I had a 00 dodge off-road before this one and would hook it up to anything. Hooked it to a duramax one night and a ford V 10. I had a blast in that truck. The only bad thing was at partys my friend (who had a S 10 4x4) would talk **** to people about there truck and we would end up hookin up before the night was over! Man that was fun!

 

this sounds like a great way to break some **** on your truck

 

Thats just half the fun, once you do that, you rebuild it to be even stronger

 

Just hope whatever strap or chain you're using doesn't snap back and leave you with a big A$$ crease in your tailgate.
