Hi,
I'm currently in the progress of doing a SOA with 2.5" springs and 3/4 ton full width Chevy axles on my CJ. Just wondering what the best method of controlling axle wrap would be... track bars... link setups.. etc. I have a few ideas but I was wondering what you guys with similar setups as I'm building are using and how there working out.. Thanks TJ
STUPID NEWBIE:flipoff2: If you had used the search feature to ask that illiterate smart ass question, you would have pulled up several other dumb-ass newbies stupid comments saying the same thing.If we didnt all have to type it 15 times a day we wouldnt bitch.:flipoff2:

I've built every damn kind of system you can think of (for use w/ leaf springs) and the best design I am currently using on the rigs I build is a ladder bar style unit. It has 2 points on the axle (top and bottom or front) and 1 point at a crossmember under the rear t-case out put. (varies a bit due to length or vehicle and such) the upper mount must be a raduis arm style bushing passing through a hole in a 1/4 - 3/8" thick plate preloaded for normal up travel but unrestricted down travel.
If you want one fabbed up I can take some measurements or specs from your rig and use one over here as a template. then you can just weld it in.
I used to be from Plainville MA. It was trippy looking at those trip pics on your site because I've been to many of those places

This post is about wrap bars and I saw you on here so I figured I say something about them.
I will be ready to fab mine up come about early to mid may, depending on the tax return, Once I get the 35's on there and take some lift out I will reset the pinion angle and I will be ready to fire up the Buzz Box for the wrap bar.
I think this was discussed reciently in the rockskullz board over at www.rockskullz.com
sign up and check it out. we are not as quick to flame you just for being a newbie and a traction bar question is perfectly legit.
sorry for the solicitation...but :flipoff2:
