traction bars for the front?
do you need to put traction bars on the front axle? Would it help or hurt anything? Would it be the same concept as the back? Any info on this would be nice, thanks.

The links in the front already handle that job. Basically, it's like a 4 linked rear up front. The stock arms can deflect if given enough traction and torque.
