Default Traction Bars

Anybody running track bars? If so post some pics. My next mod to my truck will be some traction bars, my truck doesn't have bad axle wrap but the little it does will be helped by the traction bars.

I've heard they're pricey but worth it. How do you like them?

Here's a good DIY fabrication thread from a guy who built his own traction bar setup (mostly to eliminate axle wrap):

No idea on traction bars, but I will chime in about searching.

Forum search sucks. Most of them do. Better to search via your preferred search engine. You can search a specific website by using "site:f150forum.com" when typing your search.

try: traction bars site:f150forum.com

Or better yet, here you go. http://tinyurl.com/mt79zdw

How about some pics of your rear end so we can see the pinion angle. This is why I'm trying to see if tapered lift blocks will help. Way cheaper than doing 1200$ traction bars.
