[QUOTE="ChopTop84, post: 1504384, member: 19210"] Ive got fabtech ladder bars on mine, well I did until my new camper frame tie downs interfered with their travel. I need to find a way to modify my tie downs so I can reinstall them. Mine just clamped around the axle tube top and bottom, and used an existing hole in the frame for the attach point. I think I had to drill one extra hole. Ford is *very* skiddish about frame drilling, they would prefer you didnt, but they will allow some drilling in the middle of the web, and none into the upper or lower flange. Made a huge difference at the race track. No more driveline binding and rear axle shudder. I dont recommend the single strong bar method, Ive seen it done as a DIY and they were bent in less than a week. Could have been the strength of the bar wasnt up to snuff, but it still looked weak to me regardless. [/QUOTE]
