Just wanted to update this thread. Bryan @ Stifflers is about 2 weeks out from selling his long bars. Spoke with him earlier this week. Fully bolt on and only one hole needs to be drilled.

I'm first on the list, money's off to the side so the second he is ready to ship they will be headed my way.

Do you find that you are getting a lot of axel wrap with a 6" lift and 35"s?


Im about to order a procomp lift and worried about needing spring or a traction bar

Will those fit our body style? The website lists them as 1997-2004.

I only have 33"s but can say with the added power of a tune axle wrap is huge. Makes me think the axle is wanting from under the truck!

I agree and the design of them doesn't prevent all wrap. Which is why in getting these.

Yes, they have had about a dozen 09+ weld-on kits out there for a while. I have been chatting with Bryan for months helping him with design questions he and I had with the bars for our trucks. We spoke early this week and he told me they should be ready in 2 weeks.

100% Bolt On only needing to drill one home. They have opposite threaded heims on the ends which allow for adjustment without removing them. The heims also last much much longer than the bushings that come on the JLP bars.

Brackets and bars will be powder coated black. For a extra $100 I think he said he can do them a different color. I'm getting my brackets black and bars silver.

Can't wait to see what these look like installed. How much are they costing you?

Shipping and the extra powder coating is $600ish.
