A truck's power doesn't always make it to the road; when the rear axle is allowed to rotate, wheel hop and loss of traction can occur. The BD Diesel Traction Bar Kit is engineered to get that lost power to the ground by precisely following the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) spring travel sweep and axle rotation. This thoughtful engineering minimizes ride stiffness and ensures no adjustment is needed when pulling or hauling, making it an ideal upgrade for vehicles w/o OEM Rear airbags. The bars are built to last with 2-inch OD tubing and the highest quality QA1 heavy-duty American-made rod ends, rated for 28,000 lbs each. Polyurethane bushings provide direct loading without excessive movement, unlike spring-loaded designs. This kit prevents wheel hop, axle wrap, and large angles on U-joints, making it an essential upgrade for towing, lifting, larger tires, high horsepower, competitive pulling, or drag racing.
