Well you should have looked into this before you ordered it.
If your car is "slammed" why did you order a traction bar? Do you have a need for it or just because you wanted one?

The Full-Race bar sits low, very low. Here are some old pics that will hopefully help you:



At ride height:

I have the Innovative traction bars and the bottom of the bar sits level with the bottom of the oil pan if you still have an LS

if you want to auto-x or do any sort of competitive racing dont slam your car. then maybe you can take advantage of that traction bar.

This too! Slamming the car out will make this counter-productive..

The car is guna be slamed. Thats how i ride. I canceld the full-race order and i orderd an ESP traction bar. They sit 1/4in below the radiator suports. So im good now
Hmmm have seen a lot of bad feedback on the ESP unit, good luck! Let us know how it works out.

On a side note, you may want to look up some info on suspension tuning before you start racing then, maybe check out the Road Race forum here for help because "slammed" is not going to do you any good there.....

But above you said you're gonna slam it out?

Just heard through various posts and what not the quality of the welds was spotty and overall integrity of the unit was poor. This was over a year ago though, things could have changed.

Judging from the wheels and the stickered up lip I would agree with you SolBros!

it's not negativity, it's us who have been around for a while trying to help you in the right direction. The moment you used slammed and track it you lost me.
