traction bars...

While piddling on ebay, I found these. Could be a good deal for somebody with a mid-model Galaxie...DT? Chuck?

Those are pretty neat!

They would be pretty era correct too!


I get good traction with the stock set up and "sticky Mickys" but,I would consider those maybe?

I'm gonna bid on a set of them......they are "old school" cool and would help out for traction.....I do run a 4 speed so traction is more harder to come by.....

DT, any idea if the ones for the 60 tbird would work for the liner?

FX,I sorta doubt those would be the same.....of course they don't look they would be to hard to make work though.....such a simple design helps that.....

You bet! I'm gonna email the guy and get a length on em. I know the spring plate section will mount up to mine, I just need to see if it will come forward far enough to weld onto something besides the spring...

I can't see why they'd be of use on a '65-69 big car, all they'd do on the coil 3-link setup is cause bind.

On the earlier cars fabricating something from scratch would probably be easier than modifying those, IMO.

The 65 and up have the coil 3-link suspension, right?

Yep...
