Bwoody traction bars.

I went up to bwoody today with a friend from redline forums in baltimore and got the traction bars installed, these things rip! A must have mod for any wanting no wheel hop, these matched with my dr's should be a potent combo, Highly recomended!

I had them and sold them. puting force on your bushings, steering gear and tie rods and messing with your wheel alignment is not cool. too use on track day is ok in my books but that is it. It binds the operation of the suspension as well. they are effective in stopping wheel hop for sure. but I learned from having these. the problem is the bushings. I will be upgrading control arm bushings very soon.

I've had my BWoody traction bars sitting in my garage since September, time just isn't on my side for getting them on. Good to hear that they work well though. How was the install?

Well yeah.... IF I was doing your build it would be a must have. dont be slighted by my opinion. the bars work for what you want to do. Without these you would rip your control arms off when pushing over 700whp.

I was just teasing you. And I haven't forgot about updating you. I have some cool news I can share in a couple of days.
