Traction bars

Hey guys, I have a 66 c10 with leafs and i can't seem to find a set of traction bars for her. I've looked at cal tracks web site and brothers but they don't offer anything for a 60-66. They do however have setups for a 67-72. Are the frames the same? Any leads on other brands to check out? Thanks

Gary

Re: Traction bars

Drag80, do you have any experience with the assassin bars? Just checked them out, they look like they could work and the price seems fair. I'll give em a call Monday

Re: Traction bars

call caltrack.. they'll make you a set... they can't be much different later trucks.

Re: Traction bars

Lots of guys are running them, especially in drag radial/stock suspension classes, I know a few local guys have switched to them from caltracs, and prefer them.

Re: Traction bars

The 66 set-up should be about the same as 67-72's.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
