Message: [QUOTE="Layson, post: 1413077, member: 298"] Look at how they mount to the axle with two points on each traction bar to the axle. So when the springs want to flex that traction bar HAS to MATCH the same exact travel with the front mount. Having the two mounting points to the axle makes it so the bar can not pivot and it becomes a bending member. We all know that front shackle mount on the traction bar that has a radius of 4 or 6" or whatever will never match that path of the axle. So you back your truck up on a curb with this setup with a trailer hooked up and your traction bars will just bend like that pictures shown. The dinky little joints end up failing too. A stock truck could do this. So when you look at a set of OUO bars that is why there is just one mounting point connected to the axle. So the axle can still pivot and the traction bar is not a bending member. It can not transfer a bending moment through a single pivot/connecting point at the axle. [/QUOTE]
