Traction bar opinions
 
I'm looking for a traction bar for an 89 CRX SI where I can KEEP the stock crossmember. What does anyone suggest?

MMM, Nope!

Your only options would be to put in some energy suspension bushings to stiffen it, but I've heard they do jack.

Place racing makes a crossmember that is very similar to a stock peice, uses bushings, not heim joints.

I guess you could fab something up to adapt to you crossmemeber, but that would be too much work to be useful.

Any ways, why do you not want to loose your front crossmemeber, from an aftermarket unit the ride is slightly louder, but you gain more room and better suspension articulation.

correct me if I'm wrong, but the ones that I have seen where you have to lose the crossmember, you need to run a different radiator.

Dont you get to keep the crossmember with the Lcon?

I make many different styles, all depends on your needs. I'm using a stock rad with my member and so is the one we're fabbing for my friend.

JimFab (who is out of business from what I hear) make a style that allows you to keep a stock rad and lower support.

Do some searching, must guy keep stock rads with their. I hope to be making these thing again in the near future.

I'm lazy, I suck at welding, and I'd much rather pay someone else to do it. ;D
