Getting the Wheeling Fever
My 1979 toyota 4x4 rear axel twist has got to go. Anyone ever use a torque/traction bar on your toyota? If so, where could I find one for my pickup, and does it stop the "spring wind up?" <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Stock springs or aftermarket? Lots of options available, there are anti-wrap leaves:

or traction bars, such as this bolt-on one from Budbuilt:
- http://www.budbuilt.com/new/traction_bars.html
or a DIY version:

Or things like kicker shocks and traction bars that attach above the top of the springs, etc.

They all work to one degree or another and just depends on how you want them set up.
