Overview

Put the Power to the Ground: Get a grip and make the most of your Ford F-150's performance with Rough Country's Traction Bar Kit. Designed for 14th-generation F-150 models with 3-6 inches of suspension lift, these heavy-duty traction bars help reduce wheel hop, axle wrap, and unwanted rear axle movement for improved traction, stability, and control. Improved Traction and Stability: Hard acceleration, towing, and demanding driving conditions can cause the rear axle to rotate or shift under load, resulting in axle wrap, wheel hop, and reduced traction. Rough Country's traction bars help stabilize the rear axle and maintain proper geometry, allowing your truck to transfer power to the ground more effectively when you need it most. Full Suspension Travel: Built to control unwanted axle movement without compromising suspension performance, these traction bars allow full suspension travel and articulation without binding. Whether you're driving on the highway, towing a heavy load, or tackling uneven terrain, the system works with your suspension rather than restricting it. Heavy-Duty Ladder Bar Design: Strength meets aggressive styling with Rough Country's rugged ladder bar construction. Engineered to withstand the demands of lifted trucks, the heavy-duty design provides dependable rear axle support while adding a purposeful, performance-inspired appearance underneath your F-150. True Adjustability: Threaded adjustable ends provide precise adjustment for proper traction bar setup, while durable rubber bushings help absorb vibration and provide smooth, reliable operation. The included mounting kit provides the necessary components for a straightforward installation. Limited Lifetime Warranty: Rough Country's Traction Bar Kit is backed by our Limited Lifetime Replacement Warranty against manufacturing and structural defects, giving you added confidence in your suspension upgrade for years to come.
