Trac Bar Question?

The rear of my 69' C10 will be lowered 5". My question is which trac bar do I need to buy. In the CPP catalog they have an adjustable trac bar for the 1965-72 that is 24" long and they also have the delux trac bar for the 1965-72 that is 36" long. They both say that they are for trucks that have been lowered. The 24" trac bar mounts in the stock location while the 36" long trac bar seems to mount from the stock location to one of the trailing arms. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Re: Trac Bar Question?

I used the deluxe because I think the adjustable is only good for 3" drops.

Longer means that it doesnt move side to side as much when it goes up & down

Re: Trac Bar Question?

I used the ECE long version called the super-trac bar. Great product.
