i have a stock 79 chevy luv and we're puttin a 305 sb in it. i was wondering what traction bars i can use with out modifying anything and i ws also wondering whats the widest tire i can fit under it. please responde cause i have no clue. thanks!

i used a 275/60/15 with the rite offset wheel it will work, any bolton
traction bar will work

thanks for the feed back

slapper bars work fine but the longer the better. you want the snubber to be as close to the front leaf spring eye as possible. At the drag strip I remove the rubber snubber and put in a bolt with a 1/2 gap between the bolt and the spring. it makes a little "BANG!!" noise when you hit the gas but that works like a charm and the truck launches like a mofo. I would also recommend a Cal Trac or similar traction bar for ANY street driven leaf spring car.

IF YOU WANT A SUPER CHEAP WAY I THINK IT WAS BEN THAT SAID HE BULT HIS OWN. IF I REMEMBER RIGHT IT WAS 2" SQUARE STOCK .190 THICK. THEN YOU CAN CUT THEM TO THE RIGHT LENGTH PUT A POLY SNUBBER ON THE END YOU WILL BE SET.

Ya, that's what I'm using. I welded them to the bottom spring plate which seems to work the best. Mike Saiki is using almost the same setup too.
