Traction bars
Traction bars
Anyone have some pics of a rear end with traction bars? Any suggestions on which bars to buy without breaking the bank? Interested if anyone has any homemade ones also.

LOL! :)
You didn't mean this but here it is anyway...
I re-arched the overload leaf to match the rest of the spring pack and
clamped it down using 3" square pipe and 3/8" fuel hose...

That job cost me $8 for a used 16 pound sledge hammer head, already
had all the rest of the stuff the job needed. ;)
Oops. I bought a few 1/4-28 zerks and those fancy new grade five 3/8"
bolts and maybe a few nuts too. ;)
All I got is a 360FE, so that's all I need. YMMV
It works great for me! :)
No kidding. :)

YMMV :) ...but that setup is only for acceleration (racing?).
Mine's cheaper and is for "dirt road use".
But not good for racing of any kind tho?
Take your pick. ;)

ps- mine also enhances load carrying, not more, just better.

The OP didn't specify what he was looking for.I was only looking to reduce wheel hop but they work well.
Sorry for being vague. The is for 2 wheel apps with a 4.11 traction lock setup.
My springs are still going to be located on top of the axel. Will those lakewoods mount with this type of setup?

Cost was 266.00 to my door. About a half day for install. I had terrible spring wrap before and these took care of it. Can set preload on axle if needed.
