Those look very nice! I think I saw a truck parked across the street from my work with them on might take pics tonight. Its an ECSB OBS tho and kinda truck riced. I would go with add a leafs probably help axle wrap a little more to!

The OCD struggle is real! Can't do anything without triple checking everything thats why any time I hear the slightest noise coming from my truck I start to investigate.

Whats that second engine you have being built? I wouldnt mine one

Just hope the mount brackets make it obviousas to which bar is supposed to go on which side... These could go either way!! Also seen pics of some of these bars with shocks mounted to them which explains what the extra holes are for, curious if they still make the shock kits for them....

Thats what I meant! I can't wait to move so I can start building a 6.0!

The shock idea is kinda cool reminds me of a cantaleaver setup on a trophy truck. Never seen it done with traction bars in person. dont see why it wouldnt work tho.

Yeah, camaro has pretty good traction control when i dont overpower it, car is a stick too, which helps!!

So i found this....


I need to find or have one of those brackets made.....

Found it in an old *** build on off-road.com i think it was on a 96/97 2500 ecsb chevy!!
