Cool PRG Street Traction Bars- Installed!

Got the bars on now. I had a few issues with installing the new U-bolt plate, nothing serious and Greg has been informed. The ride feels more solid now, from a stop and at any speed, especially during gear changes. Feels like a straight acceleration curve, rather than "jumps" when shifting. The biggest difference is no more wheel hop around corners and in reverse. I can reverse at high speed without the axle feeling like it's about to tear out from under the truck. This is a very heavy duty set-up, every piece of it. I haven't got to drive much since putting it on, but so far two thumbs up.

Re: PRG Street Traction Bars- Just Arrived!

How much did they cost? I thought Greg was shooting for $350.00.

I can't really say, as Greg hasn't finalized the pricing that I know of. He should have them up on his website once he's back from vacation.

Nope. I haven't done any off-roading (don't really plan to) but I think it would be fine. Austin has certainly flexed his out with no problems. I did hit a curb and didn't hear anything odd (was driving with the windows down and radio off to check.)

I think (in a nutshell) the diffence is that the street has one bar and the off road has 2.
