Excuse the dirty truck but here's the traction bars installed.

I feel like it launchs a little better but I just want around block with them.

How are these holding up for you?

I dont race or pull, however I was having terrible axle wrap and crappy shifting. After installing my pro comp bars its like driving a totally different truck.

Guess these dont work well for stock height trucks, going to keep looking. Let me know what you guys with stock height are doing?

Why wouldn't they work with stock height?

some guys experience bad ride if the bars arent on enuf of an angle.

Oh, well I guess that would make sense.

The axle mount is somewhat high and the bars will hit or be very close to the leafs. Plus they are not adjustable for pre load.

Was going to buy the mounts and make bars but looks like that wont work. I think they say 4" block or more then they work fine.

We had a set on our 1996 reg cab, and bent them in three weeks after having them put on the truck, we made a customs set, and there still on the truck two years later.
