I assume you could substitute the "double" adjustable track bar for the one in that picture?

They would not sell pieces from a kit when I inquired. All or nothing....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: How about the new double adjustable trac bars that came out?

I am definitely am in need of an adjustable trac bar and different mounting brackets. How do these trac bars stay in set position? In other word what locks it so it won't un-adjust?

We do a kit front and rear springs and front and rear shocks and front and rear swaybars. Here is a picture. This kit is a really good deal.

Completely true, 100%. You might do it now but my statement said you wouldn't do it before....

You may have had a change in policy or actually started sharing that info w/your sales staff, but when I inquired, I was told emphatically no. I even offered to purchase another complete kit & asked to get an additional truck arm bracket added in..... still the answer was no. The brackets I had (shock relocators & truck arm end of a Delux Trac-Bar kit) were stolen when my truck was broken into (along w/some other parts that were headed to the blasters). I explained this to your sales rep @ that time & it was still "no, we can't do that".

EDIT* They wouldn't sell me the above pictured kit sans Trac-bar @ a reduced price either.

I am not doubting what you are saying and yes this is kind of the exception not the rule on selling individual parts but at the end of the day we are here to help you guys finish a project and if it takes selling you a bracket to accomplish that we will do just that. Sorry for the confusion.

Works for me. I only took issue w/the "100% un-true" portion of the statement. 100% incorrect maybe, just not un-true.

It's similar to a Watts in that it's design is to keep the rear centered relative to the frame. Because the Panhard (trac-bar) swings in an arc, it allows slight side shift as it runs through it's cycle of motion beyond center. A Panhard bar is easy to package & set-up too.

A Watts link allows the rear to remain centered throughout the entire range of motion & has more complicated packaging.

well mine is static dropped 12" in the rear without bags right now. so i am not sure exactly how long it will need to be, my new one im building is only half built until i get some sort of bracket on the trailing arm, and i will be using the stock frame one as well.

edit: also mine will most likely not be adjustable unfortunately, but i will not have more than the cost of new bushings into it (and possibly a mounting bracket).
