my 87 f150 2wd had bad enough wheel hop if i get on it too hard on dry pavement,worse when its wet i figure this is gonna be the ----'s this winter,what traction bars do you guys suggest that i can bolt on myself without being a racing genius to fine tune the set-up. i guess i mean bolt 'em on and go!

 

On a 2wd i like the cal trac bars , they are bolt on , adjustable , and easy to adjust , zero wheel hop , they are more of a racing type bar ....Lew

 

you can try the lakewood traction bars. its an easy bolt on. just make sure there the right length for the truck you have.
