Traction Bar Kit for Ford F-150 4WD (2015-2020)

Traction Bar Kit, fitment-checked

Rough Country 1070A is a traction bar kit for the 2015-2020 Ford F-150 4WD. It ties the rear axle down so it cannot rotate under power, which is what turns into wheel hop and lost grip on a lifted truck. It fits only trucks already running 5 inches or more of lift, and installation calls for drilling.

Traction bars deal with what happens when a lifted F-150 puts power down: the rear axle tries to rotate, the rear suspension wraps up, and the result is wheel hop and lost grip. This kit for 2015-2020 Ford F-150 4WD trucks (XL through Limited, plus the Police Responder and SSV applications) uses a threaded adjustable end so bar length can be set to your truck's geometry, and rubber bushings at the pivots let the suspension keep cycling instead of binding. Mounting hardware is in the box. Drilling is required, the job is listed at 3-4 hours, and the truck must already have 5 inches or more of lift.
