    Slapper bars suck on all levels. Go with either Caltracs, or compeition engineering slide a links if your looking for a bolt on traction device

    With good upper and lower arms you shouldn't really need them. I worked on one car with the antihop bars but didn't like them cause if it did hop it would break one of the through bolts for the bar

    I have Hotchkiss Upper and lowers with big rear sway bar. Was a huge difference on the street. Never had it to the track after install though!

    1badair and Flagman are correct A-Bodies are Factory 4-link.

    What exact car is this going on?
