Universal Traction Bars install on a Duster....
The problem with aftermarket traction bars on Mopars is that none of them fit correctly without doing some cutting and welding. I have them on both my Mopars because when installed correctly they work very well.
There are a few photos in the middle of this post that show some slapper bars installed, but they are not correctly adjusted. It is critical to install them with the rubber snubber just touching the bottom of front spring eye. I even go as far as to cut the rubber snubber in half, and adjust the snubber until it is just touching the bottom of the front spring eye.
You can see where I had to cut and weld the back mounting plate to get the rubber snubber in the right position. I also painted both sets of my slapper bars satin black to help them disappear under the car. 99% of the time no one ever even notices them, especially all those who only see the back of the car pulling away from them.
