Default Re: sprung or unsprung wheelie bars

As with most anything there are a lot of variables involved in your decision. The type of rear susp. you have 4- link-ladder bar ? For the most part I've found a tubular sprung wheelie bar works well the whole idea here is control, you need to be able to control the rise height and to some degree the rise rate. I like the sprung tubular type because you can adjust the spring tension on most model to "slow down the rise rate" before you hit the solid bar. The other benefit is you can make them a solid bar if you need that. My personal opinion is to stay away from the old flat spring bottom bar type, not enough control and whens the last time you saw a set of these that were not bowed? Joe
