Competition Question About Traction Bars

[J_Da_Fox]

I've got a set of traction bars that I put on my truck, and I can't keep them tight. They keep loosening up. They've got heim links at both ends that thread in. Everyone I've talked to say to tighten them, therefore making them shorter. My only thought is that the stop on one side of each bar aren't designed to keep them from not becoming longer, only to keep them from getting shorter. So should I be making them longer instead of shorter?



Thanks

Mine are home made butwhen I put mine on i put them on loose and tightend them up pushing the bottom of the rear end back so there was a bit of tension back, not much keep your drive line strait. When you get axel wrap it pushes the bottom forward and twists.

Hope this helps
