Rock:
I have not installed mine, but the "poles" are some where in the neighborhood of 4' or better. Everything I read is these stop wheel hop.
I have a question.... can you shorting the bar and it hit the tires harder on launch
if you are going to do that,just buy some caltracs and sell the long bars.
No, the traction long bars we use are nothing like anything that came factory on a ranger or exploder. They are all aftermarket.
Jamesd Duff Bars aint Chit!!!!
this is the Ultimate in wheel hop control!!!!!!!!!!
But after seeing the pics of the bars that are bolted to the top of the spring pack over the axle and then bolted forward from there to the frame, wouldn't you gain the same effect by just adapting the exploders bars? Those bars should help control axle wrap.
I'm going to make my own long bars with parts from Speedway Motors (hotrod and round round speed shop). they sell chormoly or mild steel "tie-rods" built to order in terms of length and have every chassis tab imaginable. It looks to be way less than a hundred bucks.
question is, how long are most long-bar setups and what tube/rod end size?
Thanks..
Hey Coop,I know this is an older post,but did you ever recieve any info
for this type of traction control setup? On the Mustangs rear axle is
the same type of "kicker shock" setup. Just wondering if anybody found
Any info about this.
Well H~ll, that sucks... Thanks Coop and Rusty and Jamie for the reply and info
I just Really don't like the look of the LFP bars or any of the "long bars" that
hang down so far,I understand that they work and stop wheel hop,I just feel
that a quad shock setup on top of the springs would be effective enough for
a street driven truck with sticky tires. I just wish somebody had a better pic.
of that spring pack bracket.
