Wehrli 99-18 Ford/Dodge ECLB & CCLB 68in Traction Bar Kit - Gloss Black

Constructed from robust 1.5-inch diameter, 0.120-inch wall DOM tubing, this Wehrli traction bar kit is built to handle the demands of powerful trucks. Designed for 1999-2018 Ford and Dodge trucks with either extended cab long bed (ECLB) or crew cab long bed (CCLB) configurations, these bars are crucial for managing axle wrap under hard acceleration. Axle wrap can lead to wheel hop, reduced traction, and potential damage to your drivetrain, especially when you're putting down serious power. This kit addresses that by providing a solid link between your rear axle and frame, keeping the axle housing from twisting.

The 68-inch length of these bars is specifically chosen to provide effective control without being excessively long. Wehrli uses high-strength, self-lubricating bushings at the connection points, which help absorb road vibrations while maintaining a solid connection. The gloss black powdercoat finish not only looks sharp but also adds a layer of protection against corrosion and wear, ensuring these bars hold up to the elements and the rigors of daily driving or performance use. Installation involves welding the axle-side brackets and bolting the frame-side brackets, making it a job that requires welding expertise.

This kit includes all the necessary components for installation, including the traction bars, frame and axle brackets, and hardware. It's a well-built solution for truck owners looking to improve their vehicle's stability and power delivery, particularly those who have modified their trucks for increased performance. Ensure you have the proper welding equipment and experience before beginning the installation process.
