Genuine Suspension traction bars? Has anyone had any experience with them? I've got a lead on some NOS bars, but have yet to see what they look like.

The only thing I see is form the Reading Eagle newspaper 1977 featured in a Boscov's ad.

Genuine Suspension was a Ca. based company that was owned by Jim Thomas. Jim Thomas had a few funny cars- A Fiat AA/FX, an AMX and a Mustang that I remember...along with a top fueler, too.

My friend Mark sold him a 1966 Nova...which went into storage

He died of a heart attack at the track.

As far as the traction bars, we had a few pair on different vehicles. They worked fine. Most people ran the yellow traction action ones though.

Genuine suspension got a big kick from the van and mini truck craze...it seemed like all of the vans and mini trucks had the chromed traction bars on them
