Well tell us what happens. I have a feeling if I did that on my MGT, the big engine will be like "you gotta be kidding me" and just shut off on me until I put bigger wheels on it.

actually that pry would be running your engine kinda hard. Not with stress but with rpms. I would watch that. I remember when i had my buggy and had a bad crash. My wheel came off at about 60 mph and it was the front left. Going down the main road and all the sudden boom flip, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll. flip, and finally skid lol. Just had to replace the axle after all that. Kinda funny cause i was thinking in my head when it happened ... how did that just happen then i seen the tire rolling towards me.

see if you can gear it way high and it turns into an onroad racer!

or mount some weights onto the truck somehow and have stump pulling contests!

even if it were to be rough on the engine he can always adjust his transmission so he wouldn't have a problem (if he has 2nd gear in it im not sure)
