HSP - 70" Bolt On Traction Bars - 2011-2019 GM Pickup - 4 Inch Axle - Crew Cab - 6-8FT Bed - 535-2-HSP

Part # 535-2-HSP

The HSP 70" Bolt-On Traction Bars are engineered for 2011–2019 Chevrolet and GMC Duramax trucks equipped with LML or L5P engines and a 4" axle diameter. This kit is designed to reduce axle wrap and wheel hop while improving traction and driveline stability under load.

For owners searching for LML traction bars, L5P traction bars, or durable Duramax traction bars for street, towing, or performance use, this kit provides a true bolt-on solution with proven fitment and strength.

Why Install Traction Bars on a Duramax?

High torque output combined with rear-wheel drive can cause axle wrap and wheel hop on Duramax trucks. Wheel hop places added stress on driveshafts, u-joints, axles, and suspension components. Installing traction bars helps control axle movement and allows power to be transferred to the ground more effectively.

HSP 70" Bolt-On Traction Bar Design

The HSP traction bar system stabilizes the rear axle by connecting the axle to the frame using high-quality joints and polyurethane bushings. This design helps reduce axle wrap while maintaining proper suspension movement. The kit is fully bolt-on and does not require special tools for installation.
