FSD’s bolt on traction bar kit is here! We have spent several months designing a traction bar set that would not only look good, but function in the harshest of situations. Designed with ultimate precision using CAD drawings direct from Chrysler ensuring a perfect fit. Every single component that goes into our traction bar kit is of the highest quality and strength. We specifically designed these bars to be the beefiest bolt on option on the market. These bars are pricey but we encourage you to pay close attention to the differences between ours & others available on the market. We use 2” OD 1/4” heavy wall tube & MASSIVE 1.25” joints on BOTH ends making these unbelievably strong & double adjustable.
