they are great for daily drivers. the difference between full race and economy.the full race come with a full 2 year warrenty, the eco with a 90 day warrenty. full race rated for 24000lbs of force eco is 17000. that is still a lot more then your ever going to submit them too, but a lot of people go for the warrenty

These get rid of all your wheel hop? Than how come people go for mounts instead of this? There has to be something bad about this

if u think theres something bad about bwoodys traction bars, go check out the reviews they have gotten on the redline forum or on srtforums ... the reason people get mounts is to take all the wasted movement out and get that power to the ground better. i seen my motor on a dyno with the hood open and the amount the motor moves is ABSOLUTELY disgusting

I just ordered the full race traction bars AND the full set of solid engine and tranny mounts. Like stated above, with the mounts you get vibration (especially with solid mounts) with the bars i don't think you'll get more vibration... i believe they brace your control arms so they don't hop as much. the mounts limit movement of the engine and trany. anyone know if there is a downfall to the bars i.e. too much limit in suspension/ steering travel... hopefully i get them next week and put them on then or the weekend after. weather sucks around here. Let me know how u adjusted it when u get everything worked out.

the traction bars limit control arm deflection that is a major cause of wheel hop. the solid motor mounts minimizes engine movement further reducing wheel hop caused by the movement. the traction bars alone will almost eliminate all wheel hop in slightly modded cars, the solid mounts really help once you start reaching higher hp. for protection both are great, for wheel hop the bars are better, but i have seen in person the engine movement on these cars and also the amount of broken stock motor mounts we are collecting is unreal.check it out for yourself and decide.

if you've adjusted them several times and you still get wheel hop you probably should just invest in some other traction mods to go with them.

the bars alone did not get rid of my hop...alot of it but not all so I just ordered a set of tranny mount inserts to help take care of the rest of it.
