who would win??
So i have a 91 F250 2wd with a 7.3 diesel and a open rear axle. A friend wants to see who would win in a pull off. She has a chevy 2500 HD 4x4 with a positive rear end and 6.1 gasser. Supposing both trucks are in 2wd who do yall think would win? Im thinking a slow pull in 1st and turning off O/D i would have her beat.

being its a 2wd it may sit lower than your truck so when you put the torque on you may actually pull the rear of her truck up a little causing worse traction on hers.i may be wrong depending on how the rear springs are in hers

tug o war is more of a traction game than power. Take these as examples..

pullin is all about weight and traction, then torque. if you could put all the power to the ground, you may have her, but she'll prolly have the traction. and it the weights are not equal it isnt really a fair pull anyway
