Thanks for the information, we used to call these "Traction Masters" back in the old days, they came stock on all Shelby 65-66 Mustangs, and are available from most Mustang 1st generation suppliers I think they are one of the best traction devices ever, and they also have another tremendous advantage to street drivers. They keep the front end from diving when you brake very hard! Seems they keep the rear axle from "wraping up" from braking as well as when you are accelerating. I still use them on several of my street machines, love the way they help braking!

They don't really work on braking , only on acceleration .
