i got a 01 rt with an LSD in the rear end. on take off it really hops alot. i've been looking for some trackion bars for it but i cant seem to find any. does any one here have them on their trucks? if so what brand and how much did you get them for.
 
Calvert Racing are the ones I have. Slide-a-link makes some. Others use the cheapo "looks cool" Lakewood universal ones. Some people use helper springs. Personally, I suggest the Cal-tracs by Calvert Racing or the Slide-A-links over anything else.
 
I was gonna make some knock offs to but they don't recomend more than 400 rwhp on them,I already have that beat on motor not to mention my spray.Also I have different hangers on back and the knock offs won't fit.The knock offs bolt to the outside of the hanger,well my lowering hanger is bolted to the frame where I can't bolt anything on the sideof the spring eye.The real ones replace the spring bushing and go inside the hanger that is how I'm able to use them.

mine are based offf the cal-tracs and use their type of bushing...now mine do need to be tweaked a bit

but as for how much power they can handle...i guess well see hopefully next year
 
Any info on these homemade ones?

well my homemade knock offs work well so the real ones will probably be pretty darn awesome.

hadesRT...if you make the dfw meet you can see mine
Could you provide provide some more info on these homemade ones?:bow:

:banana2:I am trying to build ones for my 2001 Durango 4.7L.:banana2:

Later then I'll hope to get the Calvert ones.:huh:
 
There's really not much to the design. Anyone with decent fab skills and the right parts could fab some up fairly easily. Much like the X-brace. Once you see what it is you will say to yourself "I could have made that myself"
