So today coming home from work and a guy on some crotch rocket (I don't know motorcycles, they all look the same to me) starts toying with me from stoplight to stoplight. We finally got to an open spot where we could both let our ***** hang out and at about 30 MPH we both laid into our machines as hard as we could. For those of you guys who own a truck with a 5 speed, you know how nasty 2nd gear is. Towards the top of 2nd I pulled a truck on him, into 3rd and onto the on-ramp of the highway - still no mercy on the 6L, The bike was about 20 foot off my back bumper and he was full game on and laying flat onto the seat. I glanced forward and for a brief moment thought to myself, well Joe, do you hit the brakes and risk him ramming into you or do you continue to go through the corner at the speed of god? I chose the latter. I took a 40 MPH angled ON-Ramp at about 85-90MPH. With the weight off the right rear tire, the Michelin LTX M/S broke loose into a trail of smoke behind the truck. It was a 3 wheel drift baby! If it weren't for my factory G-80 I'd had been into the ditch. That's my Gov-Lok story. Gooooooooo gov-lok!!!


Thank you Gov-Lok,

Joe from Minneapolis

 

and then 10 miles down the road it exploded on you and took out your gears and tranny?

 

Well, it was 5 miles from home so I have 5 more to go

 

This thread is supposed to be satirical (is that a word?) Truly had I a real working limited slip diff, the 1 tire fire would have never occured. I would have taken the corner better than it did. When the one let loose, it caused the whole truck to shift its weight over funny causing it to slide a little.

 

damn sounds like you had an oh **** moment LOL.

 

Cool experience, but in my 01 and then my 05 I didn't have a gov-lock make it to 50k miles...

 

interesting story, wasnt expecting that ending

 

What does your truck look like on the outside? I dont remember seeing any pics of it.
