Well what do you think. I have no lift, I drive mostly on the highway except during hunting season. I'm leaning toward lukes linc because 1. It's cheaper 2. I really dont think i need something as heavey duty as the DT trac bar. I'm Also going to install darrins steering stabilizer. What do you think.

P.O.R.

how about the track bar kit from solid steel,the maker of the DSS.i talked with them last week,they said it should be ready this week some time.it uses a track bar off the 03's and a new bracket,cost around $150.00.i am going to call them in the next day or two.that's the one i wan't....

I saw that on there web site. I guess i need to call them and ask them. What's the difference between the 2nd generation and the 3rd generation track bar?

P.O.R.

3rd gens are longer by 3 inches and have the bushing on both ends,no more tie rod end to wear out,it is also straight.

I've installed Luke's on several trucks, cheap, easy, long lasting fix.

I went with the DT trac bar and the Darrins aka Solid Steel stabilizer. Very happy with the results. However, I would not hestitate to buy a trac bar set up from Solid Steel. They were great to deal with and I would highly recommend them and their products.

Ive got a L.L. on my truck. Works good I guess. I put it on before I had a problem becuase I had no intentions of betting into a bad situation with the stocker.

The only thing I have noticed is a small shinny spot on my differential cover. It looks like I had some major axle travel and the LL scored it a little. It is starting to rust, so i guess it isnt hitting it all the time. Who knows?


LL is easy to deal with. I had no problems.

I cant believe someone voted for OEM

i talked with Rip today,he is a dealer for DSS,he said the new trac bar kit is in the production run but not available yet....

I ordered Lukes Link today for all my front end joints, all 5 joints. I'm going to send a check tommorrow for the dss steering stabilizer. Lukes linc gives you a discount for buying all 5.

what about the differential when you use lukes links? I have seen a couple threads on lukes link hitting the diff. cover?
I am either buying lukes just for the trac links for now or get the dt trac bar plus I am getting the steering stabilizer

Ok. Where is the track bar? Is it that little bar that loops over the front axle?
