Default Ladder bar installed

I finally had a ladder bar (lift bar) built and installed to cure some of the wheel hop issues I was experiencing the last time at the track.

Henry (Stoichometric) built the ladder bar for me and it has worked awesome. I have absolutely no wheel hop on the street and traction is much improved even with street tires. I expect the Hoosier's combined with the traction bar will get me into the 1.7x range 60' range. Maybe even better.

Here is a camera phone picture of the ladder bar. I am going to get some better ones this weekend.

Is this a single torque arm, like the F-bodies or are their 2 of these on the truck?
Looks stout.
