Like DD Trac-Bars, Diggers were offered by Mr. Gasket after they purchased Drag Dimensions as pic below.
Strange timing but there's currently an Nos set of Mr. Gasket 'Diggers' on eBoy @ this link...

Can't help but wonder how well a set of Diggers + Anti-Hops would work together?
Bottom pic's a set of Anti-Hops installed, cool how they so simply relocate/change trailing arm angle.

Those bars are very cool
To be honest I would be a little concerned with the two piece design Diggers, unless I'm not fully understanding the installation of the bars.

Can anyone identify this set?
