Axle Wrap

[scotsdale83]

Hey I am having some really bad axle rap on my truck. Its an 1987 GMC 1/2 ton with 3/4 ton axles and a 4" rough country lift and 285/75/16 tires. I can push up on the front of the pumpkin on the rear like a half inch just by pushing up its horriable when you take off. Whats the best way to get rid of this? The rear springs are rough countrys 4" lift springs. The u bolts are all tight and no springs are broken. This seems to have gotten worse the last couple times I have had the truck out. Thanks for any help

Anti-wrap bar. Something like the wraptor here.

That would be a nice set up buts its designed for the 14 bolt ff and i am running a 14sf. Are there any other options out there?

Nobody makes any premade stuff for the SF 14 bolt. You'll have to make something like that, its not super hard.

I have been searching the internet today and came across a kit from superlift, here it is.

4wheelparts.com/Lift-Kits-Suspensions-Shocks/Traction-Bar-Rod-Kit.aspx?t_c=1&t_s=101&t_pt=3177&t_pl=9281&t_pn=SUP100

Does any one have any experience with this kit? This looks like it would work better for me as I have a 14sf and the wraptor is designed for the 14ff.

those will work, but you may lose some flex.
