Default We want traction, this is the guy to help

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/showthrea...5&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....

if these will be better than caltracs and he can match that price than i will most def. go for it. im sure there are at least 100 guys easy on here that would go for that. all thats needed is a few ppl that are willing to test them and write about their results, the models im looking at on there look solid.

I'd be more than happy to pick up a set if the price is half way decent. I was looking at his pictures and they look great. We've gotta get this guy to make us some bars, maybe if we all PayPal him a non-refundable down payment he'll be up for it?!

If you do, tell him I would be willing to offer my truck for a Hotchkis leaf prototype. I have to do something in the suspension/tire dept cause I was spinnin my *** off last night at Gulfport.
