To you folks running Truck tarks i have a question considering snubbers on the bars. I got mine used but in excellent shape. He sen me a set of cut snubbers and the normal uncut cone shapped ones. My L is an 01 with stock suspension. Which snubber do you think i should run and in what mounting hole on the bar. I dont plan on using slicks.......maybe a set of dragr adials..but till i get those in the summer my spring passes will be on stock f1's. I was just wonering what you guys thought. Thanks, Vince:beer:

I'm running Truck Tracs on my '03 L . Put the snubber in the front hole and slide the passenger side as far up as you can without hitting the exhaust. Once that distance is found, set the driver side the same distance forward. 1 1/4" - 1 1/2" between snubber and leaf spring. Torque all bolts to 40 ft/lb.

If you find that the truck is not going straight under hard acceleration, you can run less clearance on one side than the other. If it goes right, then you need to reduce the clearance on the left. If it goes left, then clearance is reduced on the right.

If you need new snubbers contact Jay Lincoln the guy who manufactures the Truck Tracs and he will sell you a new set.

Stock are the cone shape snubbers. Many of us have cut the tips off our snubbers to get the proper distance between snubber and leaf spring.
