One thing that NHRA kind of assumes is that you are working on a car. Trucks take a bit more work. You are going to need the bars going to the back. Regan asked about how fast you went. That will answer a lot of question on what you have to have along with what you may want to do above that to help the chassis work and to allow you to pass if you decide to go a bit faster.

Thank You; i didn't get the automatic notification emails on the latest two replies (yours and regans) and somewhat forgot about the thread. i just replied with my ET from last fall. I wasn't planning on taking any shortcuts but was just trying to see if there was maybe an easier way to put this bar in. My goals would be a 9.99 since i do daily drive this thing during the summers here (may-september). I just thought it was odd that chris alston chassisworks sent me a kit specific for my truck but also included the 6x6 plates.
