Bigharm27 · Jan 12, 2016

hey guys. i have a 4.5 icon with no trac bars and was wondering what i could do to ease the shifts. it is very noticable cold or when i floor it. could track bars in the rear be my answer? thanks

In my opinion, Absolutely! I did a set of OUO short gusset bars and what an amazing difference! The only thing I regret is not putting them in sooner...

A few little things and the front mount is completely different.

The infamous ford rear end hop? Didn't help mine if that is what you are asking. Two totally different affected areas of the truck I believe.

Can you run traction bars on stock height or they only if you have a lift kit on your truck?

like was said, the ouo are adjustable length , run on anything. i run them on both my lowered trucks .

I'm running kings and carli bags, at 5psi the hop is at 30mph. Bumped up to 15 psi and now hops at 50 mph. Most annoying thing ever and idk what to do other than weight in the bed. I'll start another thread to see what info I can get so I don't rob this one

It's the local roads causing the hop, not the truck.

Are you running full rear springs, or stock springs with a block?

incorrect

Arconalloy · Jan 13, 2016

It's definitely not local roads because I can play with the bags and make it bounce and it will bounce on several roads I travel on a regular basis some days and some days it's fine

Have you tried messing with the PSI on the tires? Also are the kings 2.0's or 2.5's? There have been tons of discussions on this with plenty of different thoughts
