What is axle wrap and why do traction bars help prevent it?

Axle wrap occurs when the torque from the engine causes the rear axle housing to twist under acceleration. This twisting can lead to wheel hop and damage to your driveline components. Traction bars connect the axle to the frame, providing a solid anchor point that resists this twisting motion.

Does this kit come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, the Wehrli 60-inch traction bar kit includes all the necessary hardware required for installation. It's designed to be a complete solution for controlling axle wrap on your Duramax truck.

What is the benefit of the gloss black finish?

The gloss black powder coating not only gives the traction bars a clean, aggressive look that complements many truck builds, but it also adds a layer of protection against corrosion and wear from road debris.

Product Details

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), or Extended Cab Short Bed (ECSB) configurations. Traction bars are a crucial upgrade for high-performance diesel trucks, especially those that have been modified for increased power. They work by connecting the rear axle housing to the truck's frame, preventing the axle from twisting under the immense torque produced by a tuned Duramax engine. This twisting can lead to wheel hop, axle wrap, and even driveline damage, especially during hard acceleration or when towing heavy loads.

Wehrli has built this kit using strong steel components, powder-coated in a gloss black finish for durability and a clean look. The 60-inch length is designed to provide effective leverage and control for the specified truck configurations. The kit includes all the necessary hardware for installation, making it a comprehensive solution for improving your truck's stability and power delivery. By controlling axle wrap, these bars help ensure that your truck's power is put to the ground efficiently, leading to a more predictable and stable driving experience, whether you're at the drag strip or on the highway.

Proper installation is key to getting the most out of this traction bar kit. Ensure you follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, paying attention to mounting points and hardware torque specifications. This kit is a solid choice for Duramax owners looking to protect their drivetrain and improve their truck's performance under load.
