Traction Bars & Traction Bar Kits

Traction bars or traction bar kits—also called slapper bars or anti-hop bars—secure the axle against the frame, so all the power goes to the pavement instead.

Massive rear wheel torque can cause axle wrap, wheel hop, tire spin and leaf spring wind-up. For drag racers, this can spoil your burnouts and hard launches, and for heavy haulers, this can cause driveline vibration and poor handling. In both cases, you also run the risk of catastrophic damage.
