Blocks or bags

That's the question, which, for sled pulling...

And why...

I sled pulled on everything from almost pavement, to almost a beach this year.

Throw up pics of your trac bar set up if you got 'em too.

I pulled with nothing all year. Somehow, I still have the stock rear end. Probably because I'm underpowered huh? Lol...

Airbags, because you want your truck to ride normally when you aren't hooked up... With an add-a-leaf or block, you will hate the ride.

Here's my airbag setup:

Well, this truck has always been my tow mule.

But, the plans for it might make it a little stupid to tow with. If it proves to be to complicated to tow with, I'll find an old dually.

Yeah, probably will, since I'm not plannin on buyin something else to tow with, and I can use the bags towing as well as pulling.

But, I was wondering what guys have found work on the track.
