Bolt on traction Bars

Does anyone know if there is a complete bolt on traction bar kit available for my truck (see sig). I would buy a weld on kit but have no access to a welder.

I'm running the tuff country ladder bars and I'm pleased with them. Simple bolt on installation. Got them from rockymountinsusp.com for I think $350 shipped.

Thanks for the reply. How do they attach to the rear axle, and do they limit the articulation any?

They attach to the bottom of the u-bolts with a plate. They haven't limited articulation on my rig cause I've had one side of my rear axle stuffed into the fender with the other just sorta hanging.

Sorry for all of the questions, does the plate that comes with the kit go over the previos u-bolt plate or does it come with a new one, and did you have to drill the frame?

I know it's only listed for 68'-93' but if you check their site or call 'em they might be able to help you out.

Diesel Poole Darryl makes a set that are bolt on for truck pulling...810 853 1060 that are for your year of truck. A couple different friends of mine have them and truck pull with them.

They are single bar with heims at the end. There is a plate that bolts to the bottom of the axle u bolts. And a plate that bolts to the frame.

They go over your existing u-bolts and then you do have to drill the frame. 8 1/2" holes. That sucked.
