i am looking to buy a set of traction bars for my 2004 f250 but wanted some opinions on the best brands. also if you know the prices and a place to buy to get the best deal. any info would be great.

 

Here's a recent post on one type. Can't comment on it from experience but they seem to be a quality item.

The ones referenced above would last about 2 days on my Ex. They are to low and too long.

 

i know what you mean. i read that thread but it really didn't help. need some other ideas

 

Caltrac bars , Calvert racing... There not near that long & they are adjustable.. Lew

 

with them being adjustable and all how would i know to set them? they come with directions or something haha. i haven't dealt with all this so i'm not sure what to do...don't want to set them wrong and mess my truck up

 

They come with directions , with the weight of the truck on the ground just turn them so they are snug. There made for racing but you can use them to take spring rap out . On the street i just run them snug & when i got to the track i put about a 1/2 turn in them .. Lew

 

i checked their site and they don't make any to fit superduties...have to find something else

 

Check out a company named One Up Offroad. They make quality components but are not cheap...

Those would last about 1 day.

 

OUO Bars work the best, I run them on my 07.

I don't rock crawl....tow heavy, snow plow, minor off road at job sites and they work awesome

 

You're consistently bashing the recommendations of other FTE members but not offering any recommendations of your own... why is that?

 

the OUO bars are nice...too bad i have to get the ones that cost the MOST cause i have a longbed haha...i like the diff cover from OUO though. i could gain ground clearance cause it would move my stabilizer up. i have dual BDS now and they are the lowest thing on the truck so i already smashed them haha

 

They definitely make them for Superduties. They just dont have them listed on the site. Call them or email them. I talked to them the other day. They have them ready to go.

 

I'm only making an honest statement. I replied about 2 separate setups. I don't bash, I give opinions. I did offer recommendations on a previous post and admitted that I don't know who makes ones that will work and someone came up with some good answers (if you would read). If you don't go off road both of those setups would work. They won't work for me.
