Part #: 30991

Overview

The Tuff Country Performance Traction Bars are a premium suspension upgrade designed specifically for Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models from 2003 to 2013 equipped with 5.7L Hemi, 5.9L, or 6.7L diesel engines. These traction bars effectively reduce or eliminate wheel hop and axle wrap, common issues that arise from high horsepower, heavy towing, and the use of oversized tires. By stabilizing the rear axle, they enhance traction and improve overall vehicle control during acceleration and under load.
