We just finished setting up the traction bars on my brothers 2001 F-250 4x4. They are the Cal-Trac design but we like to call them "Trippin Tracs". They are now available at www.socaldiesel.com (http://www.socaldiesel.com)
I like the stealth design, barely noticable in a parking lot from the side view.

How can your brother own a ford when he has ridden in your truck?

Hey, I saw that truck at LACR last weekend, and after seeing the ET's, my question is: Did he install the bars to hook up better in the CAR WASH? Because on the track, I'm not sure what the point is..:eek:

It launches just as hard as our Dmaxes, so spring wrap and wheel hop are what we were trying to eliminate. It just doesn't have the top end that a Dmax does.

With them lift blocks I'm sure axel wrap is a biatch. I'm sure they improved life for him nicely if they work 1/2 as good as mine.

So whens he buying a duramax???

How much top end does a Dmax have? :offtopic:

I installed LandYot Radius Rods on my Excursion to stop axle wrap. I bet them Trippin bars work good with them blocks! How much were they?
