There is alot of guys pulling with lifted trucks, however it seems to be that the trucks that are stock height is better,

Lifting a truck simply burns unnecessary horsepower in the driveline because it typically lengthens driveshafts and runs them at more of an angle, which consumes more power. A lower center of gravity keeps the weight on the front axle for better traction. Basically, lifting a truck is not a good idea for sled pulling.
