Default JimFab bar with no radius rods! What are my options??



I got this JimFab traction bar off Ebay a while back. I was so impressed that I totally overlooked the fact that it didn't come with radius rods!!

Hopefully the guy I got it from has them & will respond.....but you never know. He already got his + feedback.

What are my options to get this thing on the road? Can I use radius rods from another manufacturer? If so, can they be purchased separately?

Please help this sucks!!

Here's a little before & after shot from above. Really didn't gain much in the way of clearance.....

WTF? That's bs, I'm almost positive I sent the seller a message asking if everything was included with that traction bar. He even showed the picture/ad with the radius arms attached. I just checked my email account and I must of deleted his reply. I'd contact ebay and paypal (assuming that you used paypal) and tell them the scenario and hopefully you can get something worked out. It be one thing if Jim Fab was still in business, that way you'd at least be able to buy a set if it didn't work out. Good luck with it

I guess I won't sweat it next time you outbid me on ebay
If all else fails, try getting up with Jk motorsports or another traction bar manufacturer, maybe their radius arms are similar, they might be able to help you out.

That does suck. Contact the seller and see what his response is. If he fails to correct the problem then go ahead and contact ebay. They are very good about resolving claims. You never know the seller might cooperate and supply you with the rods. Anyway good luck and let us know the outcome.
