Browse the full lineup here and see how they can power up your Dodge, Ford, or Chevy.

What Are Ladder Bars?

Ladder bars, also called traction bars, are long, sturdy bars—typically two per kit—that connect your truck’s rear axle to its frame, forming a triangular shape. Unlike lighter-duty traction bars, ladder bars are built for serious stability, often welded in place for maximum strength. At APOC, our collection offers adjustable options in raw steel, letting you customize the finish while tackling tough jobs.

How Ladder Bars Work

Under heavy acceleration or towing, your engine’s torque can twist the rear axle—a problem called axle wrap. This twists your leaf springs, cuts tire contact with the ground, and wastes power. Ladder bars resist that torque by locking the axle in place, channeling all that force straight into your tires. The result? Maximum traction, whether you’re hauling a trailer or launching off the line. Our bars are adjustable for lifts up to 12” and bolt on easily—though welding’s an option for a rock-solid setup.

Why Use Ladder Bars on Your Truck?

Ladder bars tackle three big issues for truck owners:

• Prevent Axle Wrap: During hard acceleration or braking, axle wrap twists your springs and kills traction. Ladder bars hold the axle steady, keeping your suspension in line.
• Boost Traction: With the axle locked down, your tires stay planted, delivering consistent grip on pavement, gravel, or mud.
• Stop Wheel Hop: Axle wrap can make wheels bounce under power or braking. Ladder bars eliminate that hop for a smoother, safer ride.

Real-world tests show ladder bars can slash driveline vibration by up to 80%, making them a go-to for performance builds.
