Good news from James Duff!!!!!
Good news guys, just got off the phone with Tom. James Duff is currently doing a production run of 50 trac bars that should be ready by sometime next week.
Instead of 5304/5305 bars the bracketry has been combined for both due to production cost. This means that these bars with fit any 8.8 ranger axle.
Keep checking this thread as I get more information from James Duff....
*Make sure you tell them Rob Smith sent you so they make sure to take care of you...*

yes it is!
think of a trac bar like this...if you understand what sway bars are and how they work, a trac bar is nothing more than that...but instead of controlling side to side body roll and movement, trac bars control the axle movements caused by torque....
here's a rough example of how they work..
THESE ARE NOT HOW JAMES DUFF BARS MOUNT! JD TRAC BARS MOUT OVER TOP OF YOUR SPRINGS! THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE OF THE WORKINGS OF A TRAC BAR!
