Do a search, I just posted a couple pics of mine (in a seatbelt thread) which was based off of Roktoy's. A link to his site can be found in the Toy section here. (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=77070&highlight=traction+bar)

awww, no way...thanks a bunch chris for pointing that out; it helped a whole lot and i learned a whole lot more...this sent me in a very good direction.
one question though... should the shackle be pointing strait up (90*) or should that shackle be just a hair bit aft the front of the vehicle for using reverse and not binding/breaking stuff?

The shackle should be set so it is perpendicular to the ladder bar (90 deg angle).

does it matter if it's pointing up or down too much? I know this has been rehashed many times, but thought I'd just see if anyone has a nice pat answer.
