    @stairgod (#Mohawk Fab) built this for me. He tested the one he made for himself. Only effects travel when both wheels are off the ground (AKA a jump) Stuff and droop are unaffected. I’m not planning to jump anything...

    i was trying to imply more so when the trac bar is against the rock not letting the rear come down fully where a two piece would have a slight advantage. i can think of a few situations ive been in where that would have been the case.

    Ah, I see. I figure this Trac Bar has saved me a few re-tubes at this point. One piece or two, I like having it.

    Last time I bent a DS, it was so bad, it was hitting the center bearing mount as it rotated lol.

    I’m sure you know this already, but the cut line will be the measurement from the top of the bottom hole to the center of the top hole.

    I thought I did. I just measured it though. 2-1/8”. Drill probably wandered a bit when I made the holes.
