Traction bars area great idea. But I dont see them for 4x4'n over even semi rough country. The examples I saw here made it irrelevant to raise your truck 6+ inches if you have a long section of traction bar just above the ground waiting to get pummeled, bent & shredded by rock or hard ground. Cool looking most definitely. I I could find a bar that sits high and doesnt affect my clearance Id buy it.

I recently installed a BDS 4" lift kit with their 2.5 coil-overs, deaver leaf springs and am considering adding BDS traction bars. I'm a bit undecided between their fixed traction bar and recoil. My build is primarily for off-road use (not Baja racing) to explore trails and such. I'll rarely tow anything, and if I do, it'll be my kids' power toys. Additionally, I'm planning an LS9 supercharger install and other engine upgrades to boost horsepower. Have you encountered any off-road or performance issues with the traction bars?

@@imluissebastian that all sounds awesome! I haven't had any issues with my tank. My truck goes offroad with a full size slide-in camper in the box (I'm technically a little over weight) and we periodically tow a 17' fishing boat, but it isn't a Baja beast that's for sure, lol Haven't done any horsepower upgrades yet and have been happy with it so far, I find it goes fast enough to get me on trouble as it is and has plenty of getup to do whatever or go wherever I need. Traction Bars haven't caused any problems, I have the recoil and they've been good. Rides like a dream with a load but is a little rough (hense 'tank) when it's empty. But what would you expect out of a one ton lifted truck 😆 Hope some helped, and happy building and sling the mud!

BDS Reflex on my 2018 F150 Screw - function over form. Plus, BDS 6" w/ Fox 2.5 shocks all around & UCAs w/ 35's on 18's because I don't want to dick around with rubbing or chopping up my truck just to achieve a certain appearance or to make it function. I'd rather be able to air down and not run into rubbing issues during articulation of the suspension, as opposed to inadvertently ripping something off of my truck with mushy low psi tires under load (it happened once long ago, learned that lesson & it was expensive to fix - never again). I also beefed up the lower ball joints and outer tie rod ends with ones that have zerks.... duty-free joints are BS & lube is a good thing, especially when it's applied routinely in regular intervals. (Since I know it's going to happen - idiot trolls will be trolls - please insert sexual innuendos and puns regarding lubrication below. Thank you.)

Even though I believe they have a design flaw, I'd like to find a good replacement set of the Rize traction bars. My truck has a 10 inch Rize lift too, so it would all match if I replaced the Rize bars with another Rize set. It's a shame that Rize is no longer in business 😕

First off.... was that a fkn squatted truck in the thumb? TF? Second... ladder bars are for sure useful... Ever see axle wrap? Ever see leaf springs go S bendy under high load / torque? Ladder bars add a solid additional point of triangulated contact for the rear axle. They stabilize that load under acceleration, load, braking, and more. They're great. There are some better tests than this shown online, with jigs set up on the rear end, and man does that puppy MOVE, in the WORST of ways... especially when you increase the lift amount.
