The plans have been tested by actually building a set of bars to insure that your project will be a success and that you will be proud of the results. Now is your chance to convert your Willys , Chevy or Ford coupe to a true nostalgia rear suspension and experience the feeling of nostalgia drag racing every time you pull onto the road and turn heads. Back in the days as they would say, tire technology was not what it is today and traction even with the smaller powerplants of the time was a problem. Weight transfer was the solution that was found to work. High front ends and engines mounted high in the frame helped to move weight to the rear wheels. Along with these methods someone got the idea that using long ladder bars mounted between the rear end and the frame would help transfer more weight as the car left the line. These plans will produce ladder bars about 18" longer than modern bars. They are of the old school rectangular tube design and are rigidly mounted to the rear end housing. Most Gassers use a leaf spring to mount the rear end. The problem is that the springs and the ladder bars are different lengths and pivot on different arcs. The short answer is that the suspension binds up and can not move. The bars in these plans have a very unique front mounting arrangement that permits the front mount to move with the suspension to prevent the binding, They have the nostalgia look but have the modern front mounting arrangement to provide better ride and handling.
Application: Universal fit street or mild strip traction bars. Use with leaf springs
