Properly designed and installed wheelie bars help control E.T. robbing wheelstands without affecting load transfer.
Different types of race cars require different types of wheelie bars. Your basic bracket race Doorslammer doesn't need 100" solid mounted wheelie bars but an Alcohol Funny Car would have a big problem without them.
For Doorslammers, S&W Performance Group offers two styles of wheelie bars. The traditional wheelie bar is 48" long from the rear axle centerline and utilizes a flat aluminum bottom leaf. These bars are available in chrome or zinc plated and come with necessary mounting hardware. S&W Performance Group's tubular doorslammer wheelie bar measures 54" and 60" long and are available unpainted. Both styles are spring loaded and easily adjustable.
S&W Performance Group's single wheel wheelie bar was designed specifically for the Aero Roadster but can be easily adapted to most Altereds, Dragsters & Street Roadsters. Available chrome plated or unpainted, the S&W Performance Group single wheel wheelie bar is 70" long and measures 14 1/2" wide at the upper mounting tabs. Also available is a 100" wheelie bar kit, identical to the wheelie bars used on all S&W Performance Group Top Alcohol Funny Cars. 100" Wheelie bar kits are available in single or dual wheel versions. Replacement parts are available for all wheelie bars and kits.
