Well after about forever installing these things, I finally got em on. What a bitch of an installation, that's for sure......mainly because I didn't have a lift and none of my good tools were available to me at the house so I had to do with what I had. The final test drive was definitelly worth it though. I had such bad wheelhop lately, I couldn't nail the throttle from a stop or it would just start bouncing till I let off. Now it is unbelieveable how tight the rear end is. I nail it now and I get a nice smooth controllable wheelspin all the way out of first if I want it to, no wheelhop at all. It just feels so much tighter overall anytime you accelerate. A+ on these things! Now for the pics!

Wow! Ive been waiting for a traction bar review for a long time. How much did they cost you if you dont mind saying?

 

Those suckers are right at $600 so they are definitelly an expensive mod! If you got wheelhop and want to get rid of it completely.......then they are an absolute solution.

 

Pretty hefty price, I can put that on my list of mods but its gonna be towards the end of my list Nice mod man!

 

Those look nice, an excellent addition to a boosted truck like yours I can imagine - wheel hop sucks (Ive lost a rear end to it in my cobra)

 

Doesnt look like they'll work with a flip kit... The bottom u-bolt plate wont allow it to fit it doesnt look like... BOOO!!!!!

Nice mod though man... I got crazy wheel hop too... and I ain't boosted yet... Congrats man!

 

Do you think you could take a picture from further back? Thanks!

 

If I ever felt wheelhop with my FX4, I think I'd pass out with excitement...

Definitely not a problem for me.

However, I do like those traction bars. You didn't need to weld anything? It looks like it was all bolt-on.

 

No welding on these, it is all bolts. 8 holes drilled in the frame for the bracket to mount. Here are some pictures farther away so you can see how it looks from around the truck.

 

Is it just me or did you lose a lot of ground clearance?

 

those look a little too low to me

 

Meh, the grass F's up the look a little bit. That grass is tall as crap (I need to mow it) But they are really made for a high lifted truck where that little bit won't matter.
