<><>Ladder Bar Picture Thread<><>

Here you go,..

 

And one more,.....

 

My old car,

 

Check it out!

 

...on my 1956 Ford Mainline business coupe.

 

My ladder bar set-up. Car ran 10.20's @ 130 mph.

 

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ladd...id=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65:12|39:1|72:1171 Check these out that a fella on the 'Bay is producing & selling. I've never seen anything like them and they're certainly interesting. I like them and I suppose that it wouldn't be too hard to make an longer set.

 

Snagged this picture of the HAMB years ago, always thought the shackles were a neat idea to keep everything from binding and eventually failing when driving 'em on the street.

 

heres a pic of my setup. going on my 62 Falcon

 

not really the same style as some on the ones you guys are showing. here are the ones i made for my mod. the top bar is bent to clear the floor

 

Has anyone ever run the traction bars towards the rear of the car instead of the front? I have seen it a couple times where there was no room to go forward? Any Pic's

 

I saw that in an article about an early 60's superstocker - the bar was designed to make the back of the car squat to transfer the load to the rear tires. Not sure how effective that was.

 

Check out post #6 on this thread!

 

I bought a set of these for my truck build, I'll post some pics when I get them installed. I'd like to hear some more opinions on these. They seem to be very well made and plenty stout.

 

Great photo...........this car belonged to a friend of mine. He raced it at Islip Speedway, which I see in the background. I just found out he passed about 2 years back. He and his partner Vinnie were tied into the Brooklyn Heavy association way back. I worked at Islip during these days. Thanks for the memories.......

 

Any others??

Pete And Jakes ladder bars.

 

i whipped these up two years ago. maybe a little over kill but oh well. i made a swing shackle for the front to eliminate binding. i even made the bat wing brackets. it works great.

 

i saw some kat selling a set of ladder bars on ebay once. they were total shit. they were boogered together out of 3/4 inch square tubing, and had a three inch exhaust pipe clamp on the back to connect to the axle tube.

 

A bit O/T, but what's the status of your gasser BloodyKnuckles?
