They aren't traction bars, but you could go to a Road Master Suspension setup. The ladder bars are superior, but it's going to be hard to get a drop with it. I couldn't imagine driving with a set under mine. I would nail everything in the road.

The Roadmaster is really easy to install. If you can do drop blocks, it's about the same process.

That is a new radiator. I umm...broke.. the other. I got it from Performance Radiator in Spokane, WA for like 160 bucks shipped next day. It's core is also twice as thick as stock.

My condensor just hadn't been put on yet. Still in the box. They dent so easily.
