Cheep and good Traction

Check this JC Whitney page out. It shows a design for a "spring" traction Control . Click on the " click image to view larger" and view the diagram of the rear of the truck. You will see how you get " spring wrap". I have used this ( home made) type traction control set up for a long time and it works great.And its cheep if you have a spare leaf spring. You can view what I did in the " Project" topics and look for Pangra Project.
