Hey just wondering wat traction/torque bar setups people are running on their zookz? i get way to much axle wrap at the moment and looking at buying a spirtrax traction bar.
Anyone running these?

I tried running a traction bar with a stock rear end housing and ended up twisting the housing. A traction bar will stop axle wrap BUT they are really hard on a stock Samurai housing because the housings are so thin. I replaced my traction bar by adding a 6th leaf to my YJ springs. The only traction bar that may be safe to use in my opinion is a Sky Traction bar.

4link is alot more work than a trac bar
Worth it though IMO
