Default Re: Leaf spring traction bars

Before going to full blown traction bars I'd give leaf spring clamps a try...unless you're running stickies on the back, the clamps should be just fine...1 clamp per side may get it, but don't be surprised if you end up clamping every leaf on both sides...Mr. Gasket makes 'em, but they're a tad too wide and may rub the frame rail or fender, but they're easy to make, and can be anything from a 2 small flat pieces of steel & couple of bolts or a piece of round stock bent into a "U" with a piece of flat stock on the bottom with a couple of nuts...I've ran both, and they seem to be "ok"...
