neotim Member 276 Member For: 15y 7m 12d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast Posted 09/05/12 04:04 AM Posted 09/05/12 04:04 AM Just found out I have bent axles in the rear of my ute.. The noises got worse the other night after I took it to the drags.. It does axle tramp a lot when I launch it hard of the line. Any ideas on what I could add next time to stop it from tramping as much and hence bending axles? Don't really wanna fork out the money for a tramp rod kit. Would new shocks and bushes in the rear be of benefit to strengthen it all up? Any help would be appreciated!

And cost ?Jase I know Mal Wood does a kit for $899 but obviously very expensive just to eradicate the tramp.. I was thinking along the lines of adding a whiteline rear sway bar and new bilstein rear shocks. Would this help?? Anyone??

Is it manual? and if you have warranty are you going to try to get them replaced through ford?
