Does anyone have any ideas / pics of a good way to put a trac bar on a 4runner? My axle wrap is way out of hand.

HAHAHA, yeah, see if you can get that pic up. Sam's off road huh, they have a website? I pretty much just need to steal some ideas.

I am running stock springs in the rear with blocks and was getting a bunch of wrap. I didn't have time to ghetto fab anything, so I bought NWOR traction arms that clamp under your u bolts and the other end welds to the frame. These go on both sides and still allow for plenty of articulation. They won't work with a rear u bolt flip though.

Heres mine. 2 mounting points on the axle and a shackle on the horsecollar

Nice setup!

Kyota, lovin' it, can you send me a pic of the other side so I can see how you mounted the top?

KYOTA · « **Reply #15 on:** Aug 11, 2004, 05:14:53 PM »

No problem, Magpede wanted a look too.

Sweet, hey if any of you guys know of someone wanting to do a supra motor swap I just ran across an unbelivable deal on a 7mgte so I will probably be pulling my 6m out and selling it and the joined harness / ecu to go in an 87ish truck / 4runner and put this 7m in. The motor has just been completely rebuilt and I have lots o spare parts for it. I'll post it when I know for sure when it will be available. I like that set up Kyota, I'm guessing it works well huh? Thanks for the pics! $Beer Chug\'n$

It's all about triangulation

Hey,,it only took me how many das to fix it,,,and to tell you the truth the red X in really a mystery..How it controls axle wrap is beyond me but it seem to work real good on the mall crawler..

WHITE_TRASH · « **Reply #22 on:** Aug 18, 2004, 11:06:30 AM »

hehehehe I like the design its much better than the X setup. Although the X had a lot more triangulation than the other style.
