-Helps eliminate axle wrap in stock to highly modified trucks. High horse power engines, big lifts, and soft suspensions all benefit from a traction bar system.
-Trucks: 88-97 F-250/350 99-04 SuperDuty F-250/350 Excursion
Will fit many others. Axle brackets are designed around a 3.5 inch axle tube. Dana 80 DRW is 4" will require cutting axle mounts to fit.
2 non triangulated traction bars, 1 per side of the vehicle, 2 bolt on frame brackets, and 2 weld on axle brackets. Kit traction bars are based on vehicle length.
Additional Information:If you're planning on towing an overloaded bumper pull trailer we highly recommend airbags. The excess tongue weight will flex the brackets on the frame as the suspension is cycling and ruin them. Any trailer over 2500 pounds, 500 tongue weight will require air bags. These bars are not adding towing capacity, they are to control unloaded axle wrap.
Sky's Traction bar kit will help many vehicles by controlling the wrap of the axle, and fatigue on the leaf springs. Traction bars can save fuel by getting power to the ground, restores traction by not allowing leaf twist. They can even help save tires by less slip on the road under take off, such as hard acceleration from a stop light.
Design of the system is slightly unique as the bars are moved outside the frame in order to line up directly under the leaf springs. This helps control axle walk common to single bar systems mounted under the frame and inside the leaf springs.
Bars use polyurethane bushings and 9/16ths bolts. Brackets are laser cut CNC formed a36 PO steel in 1/4 and 3/16ths thickness. Link bars are 2" x .120 round tube with 2.25 x.250 wall DOM bushing casings.
Powder coat is only offered on the traction bars, brackets are not powder coated because they can be welded to the frame. Traction bars are built to order, this means are non refundable without a restock fee from the minute they are ordered.
The bars are super simple, and really they don't have a set perfect one way fits all install. Basically you bolt everything together, use a jack on the rear axle side of the brackets to hold them to the axle, the bracket at the axle should be vertical, hanging below the axle. Then weld those on first, using an angle finder to insure they are the same. Then the upper brackets simply slide on the frame, mark your holes, drill and bolt or weld. This must be done under weight of the truck, other wise the axle will not be positioned correctly.

Love them they worked perfect just what I was looking for
This step makes it easy for me to get into the bed of my 1995 F250 2wd. Instructions were easy to follow, 20 minutes start to finish!! Looks great and does what I want. Picked it up Friday at the NO BS OBS Truck Show. Thanks for organizing the show and for the terrific parts!

These steps look the best imo, and there's no denying the quality of the design and materials. They are extremely robust, and should last a lifetime, while also being very sturdy compared to the hoop steps. Cost is the only con, but I'm sure r&d plus fabrication wasn't cheap, and I'm happy supporting OBS Solutions!
Very impressed with these lights both in quality and ease of install. They’re WAY brighter than the old lights. They plug in to the original bulb socket perfectly. The instructions are easy to follow. Can’t say enough good about them!
The truck I just bought was missing its hood springs. This is a far better option than tracking down a new set and rolling the dice on if they’d be in good shape. Parts arrived well packed and were shipped quickly. The install was super smooth with the slick little template provided. They attach firmly and open smoothly. Way better than some generic kit with tiny brackets and pop rivets. The guys are killing the game with their innovation and quality!!
Another hit from the folks at OBS solutions. These swing locks are the nicest parts I’ve seen on the market. I felt like a heathen bolting cheap mirror heads onto them. Well packaged, quickly shipped and excellent installation instructions. If your truck has swing locks or Nemo mirrors, this is the kit you need!
