Lakewood now making traction bars for trucks!?
They just bolt up to the leaf springs like the ones I put on my 78 Trans Am in my younger days. Summit sells them for about $90, what you think?

Re: Lakewood now making traction bars for trucks!?
Those are all traditional style traction bars and can be had for as little as 49.99 and from a local auto parts supplier (PepBoys carries Lakwood universal bars in chrome in stock.) In shopping for a bar myself, I have found that that there are NO application specific units available for sub $300 pricing.
