Re: Vintage Traction Bars
 

I still don't see how you can say that - look at the pictures of my car.
The first 2 are the drivers side - the shock is mounted on the outboard (left) side of the bar.
The second 2 are the passenger side - the shock is mounted again on the outboard (right) side.
Look at Bill's attachment - picture 2 - both bars have the shock mount on the left side.

The driver side uses the back outside hole on the traction bar and the passenger side uses the outside front mount for its shock. One shock is forward of the axle and the other is rearward of the axle.

They are like the ones on the Black Z...
Check them out... Both bars are identical... and able to be swapped from right to left. They have all mounting positions covered.

Re: Vintage Traction Bars
 

Maybe I'm not getting it - but - aren't the shock mounts both on the left side of the bars?

Now if you bolt both those bars up - won't the shock mount be over here?

Re: Vintage Traction Bars
 

Yes they are ... however if you look on the front side of the axle plate there is a flatstock plate that extends off of both sides... there are holes to mount shocks on both sides of it (one hole on the inside and one on the outside)

Re: Vintage Traction Bars
 

Here is an image of a set of Lakewood traction bars I bought
for that day-2 look - if I ever decide to go that route with
one of my Camaro's https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif. After having conversed with a knowledgeable
member here, I believe these to be circa 1969.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong......
