Installing Traction Bars
Hey guys -
just wanted to double check this...
when installing traction bars, mount to the axel then drop the truck off the jack, lift the bar up to the frame mark and drill your hole impact some bolts on there and your done?
i was just concerned about the placememnt of the bracket to the frame of the truck, i dont need to measure anything to make sure my axel is square or that i wont have flex problems?
wont the axel want to get closer to the front of the truck with alot of flex? this would put strain on the leaf springs and drive train right?
sorry for the long post
