Anyone ever try them? I like the design. Just curious if the work as well as they seem and if they require maintenance long term?

Kryptonite death grip traction bar
- Thread starter Dozerboy
- Start date
So what happens when the tire(s) unload?
Caltrac had similar design principle.
I get they are trying to free up the traditional binding issues..
Need an actual shackle on the front end.. or you just pre-load the crap out of the bar to keep it from smacking the forward stop.. and you're functionally back to the old traditional style

I looked at the video, went and found the install instructions, and noted that they have a shackle at the front, but limit its forward movement. Never got into traction bars (never made enough power) but it seems the only new thing in their offering is the bent bar for ground clearance.
Still going to allow some axle wrap. Reverse will have all the axle wrap. Going to get some cool clunking too though probably mild.
Good points about the tires unloading and they wouldn't help in reverse. Probably not the best for me then since I'm in the sand regularly.
