If you are looking to improve the looks and the ride quality on your lifted Dodge RAM or FORD truck look no further then this Mini cradle with 4 link & traction bar kit!
This kit works with any heavy duty 4wd Ram or Ford truck that has leaf springs in the rear. Visit the TECH specs below for the full compatibility list.
This kit is designed to be fully bolt-on, no welding required! The center cradle bolts to the middle of the frame, and the front 4 link bars bolt to the existing front axle mounts. The rear traction bars connect to the cradle, and bolt up to the rear axle using our bolt-on axle mounts.
This kit is available in pipe link style bars, or with our fancy showstyle link bars as well.
Showstyle kits can come with or without steel or mirror stainless overlays. Overlays are bolted on with lowprofile 1/4'' buttonhead bolts for a clean, seamless look.
If the overlay option is selected on pipe link kits, the cradles will come with steel or stainless overlays.
These kits will work with any lift size from 4'' or bigger, up to 18'' lifts!
Each kit is custom built for the exact lift size and bodystyle of truck, so perfect fitment is ensured. Custom showstyle link designs are also available upon request, as well as any other supporting parts.
Each kit includes the center cradles, (4X) front 4 link bars, rear traction bars with axle mounts, and all mounting hardware.
Kits ship in bare steel only, and are custom built to order, current build times are approximately 4-6 weeks out.
Mini Cradle With 4 link & Traction Bar Kit
TECH SPECS
These kits are bolt-on design, no welding required. However, 4''to 10'' kits will require the front lower frame link bracket cut off so the upper 4 link bars clear. Cradles mount with (4x) 1/2'' bolts per cradle, everything else is direct bolt-on.
The cradles, showlinks and brackets are made from 1/4'' cold rolled high grade steel, and are precision CNC cut, bent and welded.
Each 4 link bar has a heavy duty adjustable 7/8'' chromoly heim joint on each end, same for the traction bar cradle end. The axle end of the traction bar has a poly bushing. All included hardware is Grade 8.
If the overlay option is selected, the kit will come with 14 ga steel or 18 ga mirrior stainless overlays for the outside of the front links, the cradle and the traction bars.
(Pipe link kits with the overlay option selected will come with overlays on the cradles)
Each overlay is drilled and tapped, and includes 1/4'' button head bolts.
