Well I took my truck for a nice little rip the other day and found out t things my brakes are too small and my rear end wrap's under hard cornering wiht full throttle with the supra lsd I just put in. the tires are fighting each other Idea so far are to to run dual ladder bars with floating leaf mounts and move the gas tank closer to the drive shaft ????

Any reason you dont want to just 4 link with a panhard and coilovers out back? Also what mods do you have? You might be having other issues the wrap if you are cornering and getting issues with the rear, I've mostly seen wrap going straight not turning.
stock toyota leaf's that are in great shape and 275 tire out back with tighten up supra lsd (soone to be tighter when I get my clutch pack and spring upgrade) ya can feel them wrapping and hitting the over loads. reason is the gas tank and I don't wana move to the back because of the exhuast I wana run soon wont allow it
ya but there only good for 4x4's and ok ish for the street and wonte solve my problem I have built some thing like that for my 4x4 but on top of my diff ps the shackle monte was not fully finished when the pic was taken
found this The Mite | Customizing a 1965 Sprite | Part 7: Rear Suspension looks nice and cheep, I like the cheep part but i don't think it will work all to well
That's good info to know. I plan on building a similar one for my 2wd, URD racing does make the same thing that is a popular upgrade for Tacoma SRunners- 2wd. I think the one you had on your 4x4 would have been more effective if the lower bar mounting point had been below the axis that the axle wants to twist on. I'm still not really sure what you are feeling - you can feel the overloads slapping under hard acceleration while cornering? But you don't have wheel hop on straight line hard acceleration? Also are you stock height? I think most of us with blocks do not have the option of putting anything under the spring as then we would be sitting in the ground. And we actually need the anti wrap most since the axle has that additional leverage! What do you think of these: Speed-Traction Bars | They look really simple, but I'm not sure of the effectiveness.
Hm ok werid for wrapping on turns. If you are going to be moving the gas tank closer to the drive shaft anyways I think a 4 link will fit. You can also do the old school slapper bars too if you don't wanna go through all that work, it will just take ya a litte bit to get them adjusted right.
What about trying to make a torque arm like camaros and firebirds bolts to the diff housing and runs the length of the drive shaft and bolts to the tail cone of the trans isolated buy rubber cushion . Might be able to squeeze something like that in there with minimal ground clearance issues sense that seems to be a factor maybe something like this but only using one bar I no this is more suited for straight line then turning but
that is pretty much the same thing as the mite set up i posted but has loading screw only thing I don't like about thous is the spring can't grow under heavy sqwaut and yes I can wrap my leafs under hard shifts ect as for my wheeler is move of ground clearance thing and it does not get rip of hop fully witch is what i wanted since when wheeling some times a littel hop is nice to rev drop and get nice bounce to get over rocks but not destroy my ring gear and that looks to be coil setup
this single bar can wrk but must be joined with sway bar and this is what i just might do first going to try sway bar and go from there
above is what I was thinking.... or go the 4x4 route. Antiwrap/Traction Bar Complete Kit - RuffStuff Specialties kit for ya, overkill for most 2wd but i believe in overkill from bouncing off rocks with the krawler.
that ruffstuff kit is what that i have sitting in my garage waiting to be installed. its pretty heavy duty, over kill for a street vehicle. ive also seen a few people on offraod forums say that they used a radius arm from an older ibeam f-150 and just made there own mounts.
Ruffstuff is overkill for street stuff unless very few leaves and high horsepower, but they have the best deal around I know of! Bought a lot of stuff from them for my krawler!!
Contact Jason (Speed Freek) on customtacos. He makes bolt on traction bars for the Taco. Go into his profile and checkout his threads about them.
I am not on that forum a link would be nice..... but after a fair amont of digging look's like I have found the best root set of caltrack's, belltec sway bars, set of gas charged shocks or 3 link it with a possible watt's linkage setup would be kinda cool too Watts linkage kit
