Wehrli 01-10 Duramax RCLB/CCSB/ECSB 60in Traction Bar Kit - Candy Red

This is the Wehrli 60-inch traction bar kit, specifically made for 2001-2010 Chevrolet and GMC Duramax trucks with Regular Cab Long Bed (RCLB), Crew Cab Short Bed (CCSB), and Extended Cab Short Bed (ECSB) configurations. Traction bars are a crucial suspension component for high-torque diesel trucks like the Duramax. They work by connecting the rear axle housing to the truck's frame, preventing the axle from twisting under heavy acceleration. This twisting, often called axle wrap, can lead to wheel hop, reduced traction, and potential damage to your drivetrain components.

Wehrli has built this kit using strong steel tubing, ensuring it can handle the immense torque these trucks put down. The bars are finished in a vibrant Candy Red powder coat, which not only looks sharp but also adds a layer of protection against corrosion and road debris. The 60-inch length is designed to provide effective leverage for controlling axle wrap without interfering with normal suspension travel. Installation involves securely mounting the bars to the axle and frame, requiring basic mechanical knowledge and tools. This kit is a solid option for Duramax owners looking to improve their truck's stability and power delivery during hard launches or when towing heavy loads.

When installing traction bars, it's important to ensure all mounting points are properly secured. This kit is designed as a direct bolt-on for the specified Duramax models, meaning no welding or permanent modifications to your truck's frame are typically required. The Candy Red finish is a nice touch for owners who want their undercarriage to look as good as the rest of their truck.
