A comment in another thread got me to thinking... What all have you broke while sled pulling? I'll go first with my list...

- At the least 6 rear driveshafts
- 1 1410 rearend yoke
- 1 1410 transfer case yoke
- Twisted front driveshaft
- Front Ujoint
- Front Ujoint Straps
- Dana 80 3.55 Ring and Pinion
- Stock axle shaft, Dana 80
- Twisted 2 35 spline SCS axles (still usable)
- Bent frame
- Blown rear freeze plug
- Transfer case tailhousing
 
Knock on wood... only one D80 axle shaft(stock) but it took the axle tube with it! Welded the LS clutchpacks together and cracked 2 floater plates in the dual disc. I was going to mention the piston I melted when an injector tip broke off, but technically that wasn't while sledpulling.
 
Probab dropbox
D60 2 times
F106 2 times
bent frame
And a HEAD ACHE
 
So far after a season and a half the only thing broken was the hitch one time. Been lucky want to keep it that way.
 
With only 5 hooks on my current truck, I made it down the track twice and only one of them didnt result in broken parts :hehe:.
3 output shafts
Front u-joint/yoke
Broke my ladder bar brackets ending up with S shaped leaf springs
Rear spiders
Headgasket
Clutch
I'm sure theres more just to depressed to think about it........:hehe:
Truck pulling:badidea:
 
nothing.....yet.....but my truck hasnt even made it on the track......

im thinking atleast one tranny, most likely a t-case, one rear axle shaft and ill throw a driveshaft in for good measure.......all of that will give long before my all 35 spline front axle will though.....
 
Absolutely nothing!! I hooked once last yr. and decided against the sport before it cost me a chit ton of cash.

The only thing i ever broke racing was a HD intercooler boot and threw a serpentine belt.

All my stuff breaks on the street.
