If you go to Harbor Freight they have a special going on right now. 15 Trailer balls for $30. You could fab up a 18 gauge piece of sheetmetal to hold em and mount em to your frame using wire tires from bags of bread. About 5 on each side should do. Then get on the freeway and drag away! Make sure you call up Surface and let them know of this legendary drag session.

Dragging period is unsafe, not just with trailer balls.

don't use trailer balls EVER unless you are trying to kill the people behind you. I used them on my taco when I first got into the scene and didn't know how dangerous they could be but I took them off and never went back. Plate your frame or get some drag blocks and you should be good to go. I plated my frame and it turned out great.

If you are dead set on dragging, don't do it with balls.Get blocks, Weld metal to the bottom (If you actually know how to weld)Drag body or frame No trailer balls though... But i do agree, dragging is dangerous none the less.
