I searched this site for Lakewood Traction Bars and found postings back in 2011. The part number 21604 is said to fit our Maverick cars, but according to some they do not. The shocks hit the housing and can not be mounted without making modifications. In the past two years Does anybody know if changes have been made or is there another part number that works with the stock 8 inch housing?
Yea. I read the same. What I understand is that the lower shock mount is not in the correct place. I also don't like it looks and may be poorly designed to support it. I went with the universal ones and have had no problems with them.. They allow me to keep my housing plate.. http://www.jegs.com/i/Lakewood/620/20475/10002/-1?parentProductId=744083
I put a set on mine last year but for a 9" with 3" axle tubes and they worked OK. Haven't put shocks on it yet. The other problem is they are too short and contact the spring 2" or so behind the spring eye. I'm extending mine so they contact the spring eye. SPark
Some day.. Some day.. lol.. I have added a mini spool since I started the "tear it all apart and make it better" project. Not drive able yet.
sweet I'm almost positive that's as far as ill get this year and gonna save up for a Detroit locker for next year
