Unhappy I want some traction bars!

...but damn those things are expensive.
..and driveshaft loops are just as bad. Heck,I only paid 20 bucks for the one on my Mustang.
Maybe Im justa cheapskate.

Your right about the bars.I was lucky and got my JDMs used $350.Come to think of it I got my loop used too $45.
Why pay retail?
Keep checking out the classifieds.There are deals all the time.

Been there dont that....

A simple way is a pinion snubber. I think it was Metco that had them. That will help stop Axle wrapup....

But seriously, a set of Truck Tracs are not that bad and they work great. You may want to try them....

Ask you shall recieve.

One of our most gracious F150online members just emailed me and is going to fix me up with a set. His name has been withheld to protect the guilty.

Thanks Guys!!
