With the Deaver +3 you really don't need the traction bar. Friend has that set up, and while it is supposed to be "bind free", you do feel a little bit of limitation in how the spring moves.
I run mine, with just the Deaver +3 without TB. I'm 625 HP, no issues with wheel hop.

Thanks for that feedback Canuck.
your right on the spring, it's a +3, with removal of the stock 2" block, 1" raise...
Good stuff man. I'm hoping to pull the truck in to the shop in a week or two. will post up on the traction bars.

Stance :D

Good shit man. Do the 37's rub at all with stock fenders? I'm pulling the trigger on the 3.0s front and rear with new springs, frame enforcement and bumps. Probably jump up to 37's.

Thanks SD :)

yes the front did rub on the pinch weld, this thread shows how I shaved them. after that with the fronts up all the way, no rub
I think proportionally it looks great. 37's are heavier, so your also adding some rotating mass.

Dual Shock Compression? - Should be since they're from Fox.

Sorry got my wording wrong.

Are they the adjustable ones?

Think I'm set with who to buy from and which ones to get but just curious in the mean time while I debate among the 3 shock brands.
