Tractor Bars DO work!

Look at that lift? that axle goes NOWHERE at all! No shifting like a crappy panhard... This is a pic of dirks truck and he gets alotta lift, way more than me...

is that full lift, cause it looks crooked. unless it's the camera angle. just my 2 cents....

i think u have a crooked eye cause its all straight

What does it look like @ mid lift?

of course they work..we have done them on about 10 trucks..never had a problem at all. The axle wont articulate any, which we kinda prefer...but some people might see as a downside

yea it dosent move side 2 side at all,rides really good 2,i dont know which ones yall have seen but this isnt no back yard hack job,this bitch was built right

i will take some pics of it when i get my bottle filled cause i only run 145 on the comp but with the bottle i run 225 and that is when it almost touches my chin,axually i think scott has a pic of it at full lift on the bottle i will see if he will post it up

Who's arguing that a diagonal link doesn't work?

what do you mean "No shifting like a crappy panhard..."

well had a panhard bar on my truck and i had the panhard pull to one side at full lift. at ride hight axle was even on both sides. having done a few panhards on deriks body style and newer body style the panhard always pulled to on side AT FULL LIFT. but if set up right at ride height axle should be centered and maby shift little laid out. ANyways i redid my panhard and i did a trac-bar. the reason is the ekstensive 2-link kit with panhard i redid it for 22s. my housing on my axle was hitting the panhard so i did away with it/ me personally dont like trac-bar because i feel the rearend shift alittle in the corners. BUT going to stick with it until i do my new frame for this truck.
