no the traction bar cannot come unlocked from hitting a bump, there are jam nuts on it that locked it in place. And there is heavy duty hardware that secure it in place at the two mounting locations.

 

Can you take detailed pictures of the mounting points with the tire off. Removing the tire might show us the unit installed as a whole in one picture.

 

Oh, I see what you are talking about. It is not black, it is just the lighting. It is actually shiny because of the powder coat. Every where else that is not shiny is just dirty.

 

Will you be taking pictures?

 

Pictures of what?

 

Mounting points. The one on the lower radiator mount and on the suspention arm (forgot the technical term).

 

alright i'll get them later for you

 

I'm definitely interested in these as well. I have seen these on 4th gens. Are these usually installed and left on for daily driving or just on for the drag strip?

 

They are designed so you can leave them on for everyday driving as well as using them at the drag strip.

 

I think it's lighting. The bar got the same exact glare on the other pic which was taken from the other side, where there is no tire.

 

Rotate the bar 180* and you will get the rub on both sides .

 

Like I said before the tire doesn't run on the traction bar.

 

Damn dude! can you not read? THEY DON'T RUB!!

 

That is why he is a newb!

I was kidding around. I know thay don't rub. The OP wrote that a couple of times.

Why am I a newb? Because I don't post-***** like you and others?

 

Hey now...they are just messing with you calm down and stop thread jacking the traction bar thread...

 

Sarcasm > j00

Learn to take sarcasm cause we all know how serious the internet really is. Oh and do you need more smilies to see the sarcasm?

 

Sorry I was too agressive at first, but too many people call the wrong people newbs.

 

Hrm, very tempting. I'l be in this thread soon.

 

back on topic.

 

If some people can vouch for this product im sure others will be more willing to indulge. Just a suggestion.

 

I'll be interested if you Post more pics. The pic where you mount for the other side (lower radiator support)

 

very interested......when will you need payment if I add my name to the list? Holidays got me pinned.

Here are the pictures of the mounting locations that some of you asked for.

front


rear



( the bars in these pictures aren't fully powder coated. When you purchase your set they will be perfectly powder coated )

 

Do the bars mount in existing holes? I know the front one is there but what about in the lower control arm?

Definitely interested but I've only had my car a month, want to make sure nothing major pops up with it before I start modding it.

 

Yes everything mounts to pre-existing holes in the front and back.

 

Looks to be a much easier install than ladder bars were on my old Chevelle.

 

I have a set on my '99 - the first batch that Jclaw sold - and I love 'em. They let me launch on slicks at the strip with no wheel bounce or hop and no torque steer. And they have seen a lot of use - and have never been off the car after installation. I did have to bend them to clear the automatic on the driver's side, and the oil filter on the pass. side - 4th gens are kinda tight.

But mine weren't powder coated...


.

 

are these made by jclaw?
do they have the same mounting locations?

 

they are not made by jclaw and I dont know if they have the same mounting location because I've never seen the jclaw tractions bars. Also my traction bars do not be to be altered like the jclaw ones.

 

subscribed for later. very interested. are there any clearance issues for the 5.5 autos?
