those are for a leaf spring vehicle, if you have wheel hop, they will help.

They work! They hang down a little low but they are a cheap fix for axle wrap.

In addition to helping w/axle tramp, they just look *****in'. Real old-skool hot-rod type stuff. I dig 'em. You should put 'em on.

i had some lakewood traction bars like that on my 85 silverado swb, they lasted a week and both of them bent in a u shape then broke the bolts off one fell off after a race lol but they worked good when they were straight

They work pretty good, but they work even better if you paint your rear axel florescent orange or green! Make sure not to remove any mud or grease before you paint the axel tho, and get lots of overspray on your tires & stuff. Old school, been there done that.
