Unleash the Beast: 5.0L V8 Coyote Traction Bars for Your 2018-23 Mustang GT!

The 5.0L Coyote V8: Born to Roar

Ah, the 2018-23 Ford Mustang GT—the modern-day steed that gallops with the spirit of a wild stallion! And at the heart of this automotive legend lies the third-gen 5.0L Ford Coyote “Car” V8 engine. It’s the same powerplant that makes your heart race when you hit the gas pedal. But let’s not forget: the Coyote V8 in Ford trucks follows a similar development arc, yet it’s distinct. So, let’s focus on the Mustang’s beastly version, shall we?

What Are Traction Bars, Anyway?

Traction bars are like the secret handshake between your tires and the pavement. They keep your rear axle in check during hard launches, preventing wheel hop and ensuring you rocket off the line like a caffeinated cheetah. These bars are the unsung heroes of drag racing, autocross, and spirited canyon carving.

Why Should You Care?

Imagine this: You’re at the stoplight, revving your Coyote-powered Mustang. The light turns green, and you unleash all 460 horses and 420 ft.-lbs. of torque. But wait! Wheel hop threatens to turn your tire-smoking dreams into a comedy skit. Enter traction bars—they keep your rear wheels planted, translating raw power into forward motion. No more embarrassing bunny hops!

Brands That Know Their Stuff

When it comes to traction bars, a few names stand out like neon signs at a drag strip:

  1. BWoody: Their F-150 Traction Bar Kit is like a firm handshake for your truck’s rear end. Solid, reliable, and ready to launch.
  2. VASFab: Their Traction Bar Kit for the 2021-23 Ford F150 is like a personal trainer for your tires. It says, “Hey, grip harder, buddy!”
  3. Caltrac: PSCA, NMCA, and NHRA approved—these bars mean business. They’re the Gandalfs of traction control.
