Default Newer traction bar design.

Well the old set on my Civic was long gone but they needed improvement as far as ground clearance went. I came up with this new design for the mounts that bring the bar up and back further.



Here is the finished product. I have already sold 3 sets and they have been well recieved.



I am working on a CRX set right now for my car. My rod end and radius rod order should be here by thursday. Ill keep updating with pics.

Can you show me where do you conect it on the car. I am 10 000miles from you but I would try to make my own.

Will probably grab one if you decide to sell them for crx. Are you going to put half radiator support on those ?

Half core is a must. I am running a half core myself. I may make tabs for full and half core. I have to check costs and time. See the other post of mine here for on the car pics. Keep in mind these are a bit different. https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...?topic=33519.0

Hey Dave. I definitely want to get a set of traction bars once I get my turbo installed. You'll probably be seeing me anyway since I'm over in Jersey part of the NE.

I was just wondering do you use the same materials, and measurements as other "big name" traction bars like Full-Race, and L-con.

Regardless I will probably be purchasing a set sometime next year hopefully once I get my turbo installed like I said. Good job!

So how did the first original pair you made hold up? I know you launched on 'em a few times right away but over all how long were they one the car?

Thanks. This is great. Can you tell me what is "Half core" Where does it go? Is it a part of some kind?
