Description
Improve traction on your 2004-2020 Ford F150 4WD without limiting wheel travel with a BDS Recoil Traction Bar Mounting Kit, made with heavy wall construction and internal compression springs that can be loaded or unloaded while installed on the vehicle to control axle wrap. Full float design for bind-free performance and can be installed with a range of lift heights.
Fabricated from 2-inch OD x 3/16-inch wall steel tubing with a threaded bung welded in toward the axle and a CNC-machined end at the frame. Axle mount uses BDS's ultra-durable large-forged flex end and jam nut.
Using a forged housing with large 1-1/4-nch x 12 threaded shank, a single sided snap ring and 1-piece flex ball, the flex ends are capable of up to 15 degrees of misalignment in either direction. At the frame end the bar uses a durometer specific polyurethane bushing and free floats in the traction bar utilizing a pair of dual stage internal compression springs and UHMW polyurethane bearings.

Built to last, the traction bar is made from robust 2-inch OD x 3/16-inch wall steel tubing, featuring a threaded bung for axle connection and CNC machined ends for a secure frame attachment. The axle mount showcases BDS's large-forged flex end, incorporating a durable jam nut for added reliability. Engineered for adaptability, the flex ends can withstand up to 15 degrees of misalignment in either direction thanks to their forged housing and single-sided snap ring setup.
The unique dual-stage internal compression springs, complemented by UHMW polyurethane bearings, allow for smooth articulation while retaining full suspension range. This means you can adjust spring preload directly on the vehicle without needing to disassemble the traction bar. The kit also includes greaseable and rebuildable traction bar ends, ensuring long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance efforts.
Installation is straightforward, with bolt-on mounting brackets that require only minor drilling for the frame mount. This kit is compatible with Ford Raptor models but is not suitable for Standard Cab/Short Box versions or AMP Research PowerSteps.
