drifting = damage?
#42
the only thing from drifting that ive known that can be damaged is the diff
then again thats if your a dumbass and are completely sideways thinking your all good..then the right rear his drive pavement while your sideways with a speedo reading about 60 and then the right read grabs
snapped the hell out of the spider gears in the diff..then again ive never heard of a Ram dif especialy a LSD ram diff doing that
but chevy's thats a completely different story..especially the s10's
if this was mentioned earlier in the thread i apologize..i only read the first page

Everyone likes to have their fun, as do i, but the more you do it the more tire wear you will see. Also consider the torque and stress on the steering system and front suspension while whipping around a corner. Also consider the damage a pot hole could do while going sideways as well. Common sense the more you beat on your truck the more likely things will break.

torque and stress on the steering column? i guess you guys dont understand what we are doing its no worse than normal driving or regular wear and tear....of course the more you beat on it things will break that is common sense but what im doing is no worse than a normal drive...other than tires spinning in the rear....

sorry im realistic in every post i make. if you want to screw around, your truck will get screwed up. plus this guy said drift a corner, not hey i slid around a corner will that screw anything up.
so yes if you are doing it every chance u get it will screw **** up,
if you do it one in a while, you'll be fine unless God hates you
in my other posts im totally realistic, sinking money into a 4.7 is not a smart move, i know because i did it and the results were not worth the money.
its been how many days and your crying over what i said? check your maxi pad

keep it relevant man, this is a screwing up drifting thread, whine on the engine mod thread. and i dont tell anyone what to do, no one does on this forum, its an open online forum, where everyone can throw their 2 cents in. go ahead and throw a few g's away getting your 4.7 to match a hemi in performance, if you got a problem, private message me so this BS isnt taking up this guys thread, i might even give you my email or phone number
my info isnt mislead, ive worked on cars and trucks, taken classes, worked in a hot rod shop, read countless books. I'm no expert, but i do know the basics.

i don't have a problem at all...and im not throwing money away and im not trying to match a hemi...im trying to mod my truck the way i want to...its my money...but for you to tell somebody not to is wrong...i was keeping this thread on track until you had to defend yourself in here....back on track sliding your truck will not harm it....ill help others keep the facts straight....
