Ladder bar what the chassis setup guru wanted.

The attention to detail is pretty amazing, and it shows with your early success.
With the picture of the sts tires on the truck in the other thread, I am curious to see what you guys have planned for the hitch. I know you mentioned a bolt in hitch setup earlier in the thread.

With the ladder bar set up, and how everything sits in the frame.... I am wondering if the hitch bolts to the axle and frame to "lock out" the ladder bar and do some serious weight transfer forward.

Pretty good, 2nd gear band was dark and direct and overdrive steels had some hot spots but clutches weren't glazed, we're going to run a little more line pressure and roll.

Are you using the same Borg Warner band on this tranny, or are you trying something different? 4.2 ratio on the lever?
If this is information you aren't comfortable sharing, just tell me to go away....

Yes, we are running the exact same parts in the trans as what every customer receives in their built units. We want to prove our transmissions work flawlessly in an extreme application without any fancy bells and whistles. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
