Default LFP 58" traction bars?

Hey guys. I finally got off my butt and ordered a set of LFP's 58" traction bars. I was just wondering if anyone had them, and if so how do you like them. Also, anyone got any pics of them installed? Thanks a lot , Joe

I have the 54" JLP bars. I like them, but after a few thousand miles the squeak and creek like crazy. You can keep them greased, or what I did is order a Bassani off road mid pipe to go along w/my Bassani headers and Bassani catback... I dont hear any unwanted squeaks anymore
Another thing, if you are lowered much they will drag pulling in parking lots and cant get the truck off of car lifts very easily either.
Only pics I have is some side shots of the truck and you can barely see them.

most people I know that have them have switched to the Metco upper/lower bars. The 58" bars do grind on speed bumps, parking lots, or anything with an incline. Plus the Metco's are adjustable. Since my truck is lowered I put the lower Metcos on mine (with Roush suspension) from Chickenears. The 58" works, but they also hit some peoples exhaust.

I have the Exhaust problem to. I have the Roush kit plus 3" shackles. I didnt have any issues untill the I put the shackles on after the Roush kit though. Whenever I get a nice day and a day off I am gonna raise the shackles up a notch and see how that works.
