Here is an update to the traction bars I made awhile back. Actually these are ladder bars I fabricated and removed the traction bars.

Looks simple and effective!

So you removed the factory anti-windup "leaf". What did that do to your ride height and did you do anything to compensate for it?

Monsta-
Actually the factory anti-wrap is still there. What I removed was a pair of homemade traction bars that aided the factory ones but wasn't happy with. Ride height did not change. These clamp to axle with u-bolts and attach to frame with heim joints(which is going to be modified in the near future).

Looks like LANDYOT has some competition. Ever thought of "mass" producing some? I don't need them (2WD) but others might.

Monsta-
Not a bad idea to make some quick money, although the price of steel is quite steep right now. 75 bucks just for 10 feet of the square tubing.
