I saw his bars the other weekend at Fun Ford Weekend, all I can tell you is that they are awsome. Jim has outdone himself this time with the traction bars. I have Sals Cal Tracs on my truck now, but they don't even come close to Jims Bars.

I got them installed with the Precision converter....... All I can say is 12.58 @ 107 with a 1.78 60'. While that isn't the best around, that is with all interior in tact and a innovation bed cover on..... While I am no mechanical engineer, certainly the length of the bars helps to exert more force. Longer arm = more force at the end.... I can tell you that you may want to remove the bars if you auto-x. All in all, eurethene bushings, painted to match bars. As I told JDM, the only thing missing was greasable zerk fittings, which he may have added. I have some installation pics at home, I will dig them up and post later
