The kit includes rubber snubbers, U-bolts, and all necessary installation hardware. With their straightforward design, these traction bars offer an easy and affordable installation process, ensuring improved traction without breaking the bank.
Lakewood Traction Bars share the same heavy-duty construction between models for enhanced corrosion resistance. These 28-inch traction bars fit most vehicles with leaf springs mounted below the axle tube and include rubber snubbers, U-bolts, and installation hardware. These bars are easy to install and provide an affordable solution to enhance your vehicle's traction.
How Traction Bars Improve Traction and 0-60 ft Times?
Traction bars, play a crucial role in enhancing a vehicle's performance by improving traction and reducing wheel hop. Here's how they work:
Enhanced Traction: Traction bars help to secure the rear axle, preventing it from moving in response to torque from the engine. This ensures that the tires maintain consistent contact with the road surface, allowing for smoother and more effective acceleration.
Reduced Wheel Hop: By stabilizing the rear suspension, traction bars minimize wheel hop, which can lead to loss of control and damage to driveline components. This stability is particularly important in high-power vehicles.
Improved 0-60 ft Times: With better traction and reduced wheel hop, vehicles equipped with traction bars often experience noticeable improvements in their 0-60 ft acceleration times. The more efficient power transfer to the road minimizes losses caused by wheel spin or hop, resulting in quicker launches.
Installing Lakewood Traction Bar not only enhances your vehicle's performance but also ensures a straightforward and cost-effective solution to achieving better traction and faster acceleration times.
