    Thumbs up Stainless Steel Traction Bars: Group Purchase.

    I wanted to start another thread to see what kind of dedication we can get to have these made.
    What: T-304 highly polished stainless steel, not chrome.

    Chrome will peel and crack under load and the bars are loaded and unloaded all the time.

    The SS bars do not have any gusset welded to it and all the welds are ground off smooth. These bars are stronger than regular steel and the shine will outlast anything.

    How:If enough people are interested in these bars (10 or more), you can expect black krinkle finish brackets (front and rear) and coated ubolts with upgraded hardware.
    I would like to get these made for everyone that is interested so please sign up here if you are serious.

    Now when these bars were made for the Lightning's they were selling for around $700.00
    These bars will be styled after JLP's traction bars and the price has not been set.

    So far I believe there are already 5 or so people serious about getting these made up.
    Who else????

    Will it interfere with any aftermarket exhaust? I would be interested if the price is right.

    There will be no interference with any type of aftermarket exhaust.
    The price I will start working on this week and post it so we can get a feel as to who all is serious about this.

    Just a reminder about the last price on these type of traction bars....

    When they were sold for the Lightnings they went for about $700.00. I'm bringing this back up as to not freak anyone out when I get a price together. I don't want to "sticker shock" anyone.

    These will be custom made and only so many will be available so they will be limited edition's.

    Plus a deposit will be more than likely required for each set.

    Again I will be hearing back from them next week. I just want to be up front with everyone and let you know what I know.

    If everyone is still serious I will start another GP thread and list those that are going in on it.

    It's just a metal bar with brackets. How much could it possibly be? Is it Sterling Silver?

    It's T-304 highly polished stainless steel, not chrome or just some metal bar.
    If it was just some metal bar it would not hold up under the stress.

    The fabricator has to get a set of JLP bars measured and spec'd out to what all he needs to make the same thing out of the T-304 and then go from there.

    I'm sure you can appreciatte the handy work. I should have an answer by middle of next week.

    If you guys don't like the idea of these please let me know now.
