Ladder bar questions. 3rd gen Dodge

[K.Frog]

I'm curious as to what people think of the different brands/options available for 3rd generation dodge traction bars. What or who, do you think is the best and Why? I have been runing the Double X bars from Glacier diesel performance. He was kind enough to powder coat them Infantry blue for me and I love them. Been running them for almost 2 years and only recently (the sled pull at the DPC) had the bar slip on the axle tube making a loud clicking noise, thought I had toasted the diff. Two drops of pee came out on that one. (They are only bolted on). I really like them, but would like some opinions on what works best for others. And for what Genre of diesel motorsport. I prefer bolt on, but want opinion on all. Pictures welcome. D-line hoop pics/ opions welcoe as well.

CAN DO!

Enjoy the reading.

Does Glacier still make those bars?I ran fixxed preload bars and did not like them for street use.Too much popping from binding going on.Looking for something that hinges in the front.

I do believe Richard is going to start making the ladder bars again. He's redesigned the way they mount to the axle to prevent the stress point they used to have. I plan to have some myself as soon as he starts getting them out. I think he may be on the fence about it still as the shipping is hard to absorb

I dont like the bolt on style, if its welded you know its not gonna move.

If the "welder" can weld right.

Its scary to see some welds on some of the other trucks out there

Mine rotated on my truck also. I loosened them re-aligned torqued and then welded a 1" long bead on the bracket to the axle. So far it has not moved.
