Default Please help this man help us with traction

http://www.cbrperformance.com/ he lives local to me and makes brake kits for s10's/sy/ty's. he also just got a patent for a traction bar that will far exceed the caltrac. i have asked him several times to build a bar for the fullsize but i am unsure if he thinks there is money in it or not. it wouldn't hurt for people to fill out the comment/question thingy and ask him to build us a traction bar.

here is a link to syty.net forum where the bar is being discussed and what not. http://www.syty.net/forums/showthre...15&page=9&pp=15


it's called the battle bar and i have seen this thing in person and the build is top notch. we just need it made for the fullsize trucks....

i am not trying to sale this product and i do realize he is not a sponsor. There is no product that he can sale to help any truck on this site other than a few older s10's. This is being done to get him to make a bar and become a sponsor.

It looks like a top quality part for sure and I would buy a set if they arent extremely expensive if they are competitive with cal-tracs then these look to be the way to go. You could offer your truck as a test vehicle

i offered my truck as the test mule when he installed my cutouts. he has a silverado at his house so he does have one available. i think he mentioned needing one that moves on out for some track testing. which, i could be very available for.

here is what Crhis had to say in the thread down in the southern section.

"Hi guys I have had a ton of email about the
BattleBar, It is coming just hold on! This stuff
takes time you guys are on my list. When the
bar goes into prototyping I will ask goshawk23
to work with me to get you guys the best product
for the 99+ full-size. I have a 2000 but it’s a Daily
Driver."

Chris
