if you do decide to go with traction bars, make sure that the snubber hits your spring eye like its supposed to, and not the middle of the spring. you'll break your springs that way.

i dont' really care if i break the spring. they are getting scrapped in the future for a different rear setup. this is just a temperary fix so i can pound the streets some until i can afford to redo the rear suspension

Don't knock them until you try them. No problem laying rubber down and hooking. You definately feel the shifts though.
