Tractor pull sled.
I want one... thing is I dont want to spend a fortune on it.
so I want to build one. but got a few questions.
figure a full size one pulls what? 300 feet? so scale it down to about 30 feet? (it will be for MTs like savage/tmaxx so I figure 1/10th is good enough.)
also what ratio does a full sized one raise the "box" at. ie when does the box hit the front of the sled. half way? 2/3s?
does anyone have one that they can take pics of so I can get details? searching online only gets me a bunch of clubs, not details.
thanks in advance.

RE: Tractor pull sled.
Hi
I hope these pictures help you out, and here is some extra information. It's built entirely from 6061 aluminum has T-Maxx stock tires and wheels for ultimate traction, a movable skid plate & axle walking beams to accommodate slightly uneven ground. It measures a whopping 52" long x 11" wide x 12" high has #25 steel roller chain with steel sprockets.

RE: Tractor pull sled.
Here's some pic's of one I got last week. $50 US
It's 2ft. long X 10.5in. wide X 6in. high.
The wieght is pulled forward with the rotation of the front axle by a string ran though a pulley at the front.
I haven't hooked it to a truck yet because of the weather (cold & wet). But it works pulling it by hand.
Here's a link to a tread where we are talking about it.
