Bolt-On U-Bolt Mounts for Ladder Bars
Apoc U-Bolt Mounts are designed for setups where the U-bolts face downward, with the nuts positioned underneath the axle. These mounts install between the original axle mount bracket and the U-bolt nuts, providing a secure and convenient mounting point for ladder bars without requiring additional modifications.

Frame-Mounted. Torque-Tested.
The Apoc Rivnut Frame Mount is built for serious strength and easy installation on boxed frames. Designed to work with our traction bar kits, it bolts directly to the truck’s frame using heavy-duty rivnuts—no welding required. Precision-cut from thick-gauge steel and powder-coated for durability, this mount delivers a rock-solid connection that stands up to heavy torque, towing, and hard launches.

Complete Kit – Ready to Install:
The Apoc Traction Bar Kit for Ram trucks includes everything you need for a complete install: two heavy-duty traction bars, frame-side brackets, axle-side brackets, and all required grade 8 hardware. Designed to control axle wrap and improve traction under load, this kit is built to handle serious torque while keeping your suspension tight and your rear end planted.
Preload It. Fine-Tune It.
The traction bars are fully adjustable, allowing you to fine-tune the setup without relocating the frame mounts when changing lift heights. You can also preload the bars to tighten up suspension response and reduce unwanted movement under load—giving you more control, less wheel hop, and a smoother, more planted ride.
Premium Bushings – Built for Life:
Apoc Industries backs our bushings with a Lifetime Warranty for lasting confidence. We use only the highest quality polyurethane (PTMEG-based) in all Apoc products.
PTMEG polyurethane offers superior articulation and a firmer, more responsive feel — without the harshness commonly found in solid joints like heims or flex joints.
These bushings are ideal for daily driving while providing excellent durability and performance for moderate off-road use.

FAQ'S
Traction Bars
Our customer support is available Monday to Friday: 9am-5pm EST. 865-983-5004
A: Traction bars prevent axle wrap—when your rear axle twists under load—which can cause wheel hop, vibration, and premature wear on driveline components. Apoc traction bars keep the rear end planted under hard acceleration, towing, or off-road use.
A: If your Ram is lifted or sees heavy towing, yes. Even on daily drivers, traction bars help reduce rear-end movement, improve driveline alignment, and extend the life of suspension and axle components. If you're running taller-than-stock lift blocks, traction bars are strongly recommended to prevent axle wrap and maintain stability under load or acceleration.
A: Yes. The kit is designed for a straightforward, bolt-on install using basic hand tools. The frame-side brackets do require drilling, but no welding is needed. If you’re mechanically inclined, you can knock it out in a few hours at home. Prefer a shop? No problem—it’s installer-friendly either way.
For PTMEG (polytetramethylene ether glycol) polyurethane bushings, the best grease is a silicone-based lubricant with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) additives. Here’s why and what to consider:
Why Silicone-Based with PTFE?
: PTMEG polyurethane is resistant to petroleum-based products, but silicone-based grease is preferred as it won’t degrade the material and is explicitly recommended for polyurethane bushings.Tackiness
: PTFE additives lower the coefficient of friction and are waterproof, ensuring long-lasting lubrication and quiet operation.
: Silicone-based grease repels water, protecting bushings from corrosion and maintaining performance in wet conditions.
