Just like the title says post up your 60' times before and after you installed traction bars. Also include the brand your using. Thanks!
i changed front shock as well but went from 1.75 to 1.68s
The thing that most people don't realize is that most "traction bars" people refer to are basically just anti-axle wrap devices, meaning the suspension stays put under a load, this allows for more consistant launches and if you do happen to spin you dont get the violent hop from the rear end in that event.
SO in all reality they dont ADD traction, they just allow you to push the limits further of your launch, in my experience the fastest launches are the ones where the tires just chirp on take off.
a true "Traction" bar is an assasin bar, or a caltrac that actually uses leverage of the axle wrap to provide downforce on the rear end to help drive it into the ground, that being said they dont seam to work as well on these heavy trucks and are much more complicated to set up and keep working correctly
Good info here!
I can't seem to cut under a 1.89 60' time, even with tire pressure dropped to 30 and 25. I think if I could get my 60' down, I would have much better track times.
Magic mike says 1800 rpm and adjust from there.
That's where I started and had stellar results

Are ya'll pulling these times with stock front suspension? I'm going to the track for the first time Friday night and was worried about hopping the front axle but if ya'll are pulling those times then I'm not worried

If you dont leave too hard and you drop tire pressure you wont hop
Sounds good, guess I'll start at 1800rpm like has been said and go from there.
What should I drop my tire pressures to? It's on Michelin LTX AT2 275/65r20 and stock 20's till next week

Try 30/35 in the front 35/40 in the rear
