GM Trac Bar

Looking for feedback from anyone that has installed a trac bar(panhard bar) on a Chevy 4500 chassis C.
Current setup includes Bilstien shocks, sway bars, air bags and some additional positive caster. We're 32' in length with 4400#'s on the front and 7800#'s on the back towing a 4500# Jeep.

  • Installing a rear trac bar can also be a challenge with other chassis brands.

    Back in 2007 with our E350 chassis, I had a local shop install a heavy duty Roadmaster rear stabilizer bar and rear Henderson trac bar. I recall the shop owner mentioning that the two together presented an installation challenge. They overcame it, but I never got the details.
  • Bob, good point...I hadn't considered that. I see one brand cautions about air bags but, it appears for the most part I'll have to buy one and hope it fits without too much cutting and welding!
