See here now Mr dick Louie, I was not putting down your Traction bars was I? No, I was asking Simple EASY to answer questions and trying to get pictures, never did i say "THESE TRACTION BARS ARE ---- UNTIL I SEE PICTURES", And you come back with this comment saying how you have had 100 sales and 600+ whp cars, does that mean anything? no it doesn't, All i said was that i wanted pictures to see for my self before ordering a set, The ignorance is in your court my friend. You yourself have not shown any information to back up your "perfect" traction bars. I never claimed to be a good fabricator but I know how suspension geometry works and I wanted proof that you mr dick, did your home work right. Because I DO know how they are supposed to be, and I DO NOT have any Degree's, So your saying if i have a degree in design, i can go out and make everything work 100% wonderfully right?. And who was argueing? not me, I was asking simple questions that the developer/owner could not simply answer himself, instead you attack me saying my comments where ignorant.

Oh, and I also said that I guess I would have to buy a set to find out myself it they where set-up right. You just lost a sale.

All of this, and I still haven't heard what you want pictures of. You make so many posts casting doubt, but never say what exactly you are in disagreement with.

And if you weren't trying to say these weren't built correctly, you would have just said clearly what is still questionable from your standpoint instead of saying stupid things like "Over 100 kits sold and having them on 600whp cars doesn't mean anything to me"


Seems you need to enroll in communication studies and learn how to get around all this jibber jabber and get to the point.

Steves new buisness theme song is 'dirty deeds, done dirt cheap'

His favorite part is 'If you got a lady and you want her gone, but you aint got the guts, she's been naggin at you night and day, enough to drive you nuts, pick up the phone, leave her alone, its time you made your stand, For a fee, I'm happy to be, your back door man!'

A. Who are you in the world of engineering, so if you did buy them you could really get in there and test them??
B. People asked what pics you wanted, and you just couldn't get it clear enough to anyone. We know that you have no idea what you are talking about, and still tried to help you.

Alright everyone, simmer down. I think he wanted to see a picture of the car looking directly at the front end, head on. He would probably like to see a picture with the camera at the same height from the ground as the pivot points in the traction bar. Like the masterpiece I just whipped up. Anyway, he was probably also asking if there was any difference in height of pivot points (trac bar, lca, other bars). Please, if I made this any clearer, take a pic like this... It will make everyone HAPPY! As I understand it, He was in no way dis-crediting the bar. I assume he was just trying to see if the "homework" was done correctly. BTW, nice bars!

The problem with the picture is that you can't feel the bind by looking at the picture. The straight line from the lca mount to the radius rod mount is only half of it.
The manufacturer has shown me the tool he used to find bind in the mounting points. It's beyond a picture. Trust that these are the best. A picture isn't going to prove that.

not here to start (or contribute to) a pissing contest. The last picture gives a good view of what he might have been referring to. I think he was just wanting a more "straight -on" picture

BTW VERY nice write up. I hope to be "following" it soon...

set the camera on the ground, about 2 feet infront of the front end, and point the camera up about 10 degrees pointing twards the back of the car, and be inline with one of the pivote points (left or right)
