Ladder bars really needed???

[Ironmerganser]

So installed all my new power upgrades and love the truck. Then I watched the H&S axle wrap video and it kinda freaked me out! I haven't "put my foot in it" since.

Is this a hoax or is it something I need to be worried about with my new power?

I don't tow much, but when I do, I don't want my axle to wrap and point to the sky. Just checking to see if anyone has the upgrades I have and if you have had any problems not having ladder bars.

I run them because ford uses blocks from the factory then add a lift that doesn't use replacement springs is a recipe for trouble IMHO

so piece of mind more than anything I guess as most don't run them and are fine
