yea thats fancy right there.. mine were really simple..
Sch 40 black iron pipe with heims, made brackets for the axle plate and frame..
i didnt see a gain from what i could tell, but i dont think i needed them. just something to waste time building
Best 60' was a 1.88 but lost traction from something on the track so i let out..couldnt get past a 2.0 60' besides that one time.
Now my 60' is 2.3

Main reason i decided to make them was i was plannin on taking it to the dirt drags and was hoping they would keep the rear from wrapping and hopping with the 31x13.5 boggers on the back.
Ended up taking them off and selling them after i sold the turbo.

I need to post some pics. I ran them at the shootout, but caltracs/slicks guys were spinning so was I. I stayed right with em with my long bars and radials. 1.61 60 ft was my best which is probably my best by nearly a tenth. I was trying to get ready to leave for the shootout so I did not drill the adjustments in them yet. I love how the truck feels with them. I took off my overload leafs and clamps. Actually rises better now ;-)
