SkullV,

I am glad your bar fit without going through all the crap I (my shop) had to go through. You will like the reduction in wheelhop.

Please let me know how your kit performs, and under what (if any) conditions you still get wheelhop. Like I said earlier, I still hop in wet conditions or if my tires and the ambient temp. is lower than 70-80 degrees. Although I have R-compounds so heating up the tire may have everything to do with it...

Other than than, I can lay down some sweet blackies now, where before my teeth would rattle out. I just need to decide if it is worth it to keep the kit on after I get the new axles or not.

Re: URGENT: For those who have the 561 Traction Kit

Can you get the new axles and leave the kit in place? Wouldnt that be like extra insurance?
