TRACTION BARS

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. Get that lost power to the ground with a BD Traction Bar Kit! BD traction bars are engineered to precisely follow the OEM spring travel sweep and axle rotation. This minimizes ride stiffness, and ensures no adjustment is needed when pulling or hauling! Bolt on and built to last, with 2-inch OD tube and the highest quality QA1 heavy duty American-made rod ends rated for 28,000lbs each! Polyurethane bushings provide direct loading without excessive movement, unlike spring loaded designs. Whether you're towing, running a lift kit, bigger tires, high horsepower, competitive pulling or drag racing - make sure to stay in control of that suspension with a BD Traction Bar Kit.

Product Overview

BD's fully Adjustable Track Bar keeps your front axle in line with the frame. The high strength 1-5/8” Track Bar and Stamp Forged Rod End are heat treated and coated with Black Chromate that lasts twice as long as Yellow Chromate, does not flake like powder coated bars, plus, protects the threads from seizing. Designed for stock height all the way up to 8" lifts, the reversed thread on each end of the bar can be adjusted while mounted on the truck.

BD's Adjustable Track Bar corrects axle alignment on lifted trucks, prevents dog tracking and wandering - provides a more positive steering feel! Installation kit comes with long lasting and easily replaceable high strength, high durometer poly urethane bushing. BD's Adjustable Track Bar is the perfect solution for steering stability and reduced tire wear.
