I built a set just like you are talking about a while back. Huntingducks has them or had them on his truck.

I was talking about traction bars with my friend who builds custom bagged 4 link setups. I have bushed fronts and heims on the rear but the heim joins are all POS in my opinion. He said that he never uses them on his builds, uses poly bushed tubing he puts together himself. It will articulate more than a seized heim and I suppose you could get derlin bushings for the rear if you are really worried about it squishing too much.

Off subject....but when did you get that 12.3 Brian? Put that s472 guessing? Have a video?

Was like 8 months ago, with my 20's, weight reduction, which was when I broke my front diff.

S366 is all im telling you :D

your caltracs wont work with your lowering kit brian?

They would work, but IMO caltracs suck for daily driving, and I got very tired of them, very quick, too noisy, and ride like shit.

Passenger side will be cake, drivers side has that damn ebrake bracket. plasma cuter? :D

Are you hinting you wanna play with the plasma? lol :D you might get cutting happy and really make some weight reduction cuts :roflmao:

After ridin in that truck, i dont blame him for ditching them. when they are tighten up for racing or daily driving it makes the ride fairly rough but if he looses them up, it makes all kinds of racket back there. But then again, its a low rider :rolleyes: :D


Everything came yesterday. With the size of these joints, i highly doubt we will be seeing any issues that were brought up earlier. they are much bigger than i had originally thought. New thread and pics to follow when i start on them either tonight or tomorrow

I have all poly bushings in my 4 link, and I agree it has worked flawless , and the price was right too !

Yeah. They are a lot stronger than people think and if you look at any real deal suspension builders that's what they use.

i dunno where your gettin your info but Brian has never gotten a s475 from newly for his truck. Unless your talkin about the one he had in a pic under his hood, that was my turbo. we put it up there for fun to show how dinky that 366 is :D

WTF are you doing in this thread asking for Brian's videos. GTFO of here and go clutter up somewhere else.

This thread is about traction bars, bars of soap, and Ballistic Fab...not some he-said she-said, 'didja get a new toober', 'i wanna see a video' bullshit.

I was thinking you had a s480 that sucks you had bad service but they are usually pretty good guys.

No, s480 wouldnt do me much more good unless i had a built motor and a 464 or 366. Be that as it may for ballsitic, im not the only one come to find out whos had issues with them. ive done some talkin around with friends and fab shop owners they have had good and bad luck with them for such reasons as i explained. if they have big clients, then they need to decide what way they want to go with they're business whether it be for dealers only or up their customer service to the everyday joe. Either way, i got my stuff, got no offer to make anything right after a few big hints (pretty much came out and asked them to cut shipping), and i wont be goin back. i spend ALOT in the stuff they sell and while it may not be what these big guys spend, someone else will get richer off me. I dont get pissed easy but damn they hit the right buttons
