Rogue Racing Traction Bars

[Deleted member 12951]

Did you switch rear shocks when you changed springs ?

Yes. I know where you are going with this...

Hah !
Dampers and their tuning always have a much larger effect on ride and handling characteristics than springs. Even on coilovers. Especially on leaf springs.

Ok Michael,

I give up, after getting wheel hop in third gear today i broke down and called Rogue and ordered them. If they solve the problem i will be happy.

I did talk to them yesterday actually, they modified the nut with a longer thicker steel plate and you can still use the round hole above the slotted hole.

Oh shit, how bad is it?

Well after hitting my front drivers side tire he did a 180 in front of me slammed in to that truck, bounced off and hit my whole passenger side.
Just couldn't recover fast enough from almost hitting the parked cars and verging over to miss him.
Some rocker panel damage, running board, two new doors, busted rear rim, front and rear panels.

The picture doesn't really show the full extent of damage but I'd at least $7000

I wanted to make some videos of how well the traction bars work.
So hopefully I'll have something by the end of the month.

That sucks, Mike. Hope they get it back to like new shape ASAP. The fall weather is the best time to be wheeling in a supercharged beast like yours.

Thanks, I have a very good shop. The only metal work their going to do is the rocker panel and they believe they don't need to cut into it and there won't be any filler!
Everything else will be brand new parts. Funny, the first thing he said is "I like those traction bars" LOL
They have seen my truck last year when I had my daughter's 2013 Titanium Escape Tuxedo Black repaired.
He knows I take care of it, he even says you can't tell it's a 2010.

Can you PM me the name of your shop? I have a little touch up work I need done.
