PMF 10" Traction Block Setup

Category: Steering & Suspension
Price: $350
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Item Condition: TX

I'm selling a set of 10" Traction Blocks built by Trevor at PMF. I had these built but never had a chance to install them. I didn't have the bars made yet, but Trevor will build the bars for them however you want them built.

What I do have is:
10" PMF adjustable Blocks, made for 3/4" UBolts, ready to have traction bars attached, powdercoated black ($350 new)
3/4" Zinc Plated UBolts ($150 new)

Thats $500 worth of parts that have never been installed. Buy the Blocks for $350 and I'll throw the $150 UBolts in for free!!!!.

Here are the blocks, I put a drink can in the picture so you can see the size of these monsters!!







Here is a computer rendering of what the bars that Trevor was going to build:

Yeah I figured so, man those things are massive!

(I just read that 10pg thread on ps.org install, I like the PMF 4-link with the traction blocks, maybe not 10in, more like 7-8''!)

Well for what it's worth, I had a Icon 7" lift plus a TEI spacer, for a total of 8" on the front, and it took 10" in the rear to sit level

On what year of truck?
I have a dually (2008) and would like to keep it somewhat functional still, Probably with 7" icon coils and the 8" trac block....I think 10" might be just a bit to much!

Oh ok, what made you go back to stock? I was confused becuase I see the truck in your sig but it sure looked stock height to me.
What % tint do you have on your windows??

I actually took everything off of the truck with because I was going to sell the truck. I didn't any decent offers, and decided to keep it. I upgraded the stereo, picked up a set of Harley 20's and threw on a SCT with custom tunes from Matt over at Gearhead. I love driving the truck now. It was fun lifted for sure, but having a lifted truck (as a daily driver) has its drawbacks. Back down stock it easier to load/unload, better fuel mileage, plus I can get in parking garages and carwashes lol.

As far as the tint, I had factory tint on the rear doors and back window. I went over the top of that with medium (20% I think), then I did 5% on the front doors and across the top of the windshield. Its very dark, and in some cases I have to roll the window down to back up at night. But I love the security of them, that dark, it keeps the truck cooler on those hot Tx summer days, and it looks good!!

Ya absolutely, I can only imagine the heat down there!
The way I see it with the lift thing for me is the damn truck is already to big for anything anyways (parking garages, etc) so I might as well lift it!! I think a lifted dually is pretty awesome looking as well.

Thanks btw for the info.
