After a year of procrastinating & screwing around, I decided to finish the anti-wrap bar today. Unlike typical "traction bars" which limit articulation & don't necessarily match the suspension's normal travel, this single central bar has neither of those problems. And it only uses 2 cheap poly bushings. If they, or the pin, or the ball ever wear out, they'll be easy to replace. And since I used common fasteners, it's easy to R&I for other service.
UPDATE: the tube isn't thick enough, and it bent at WOT in 1st gear 2H without any cargo or trailer. There's not much room to add reinforcements to it, so it's temporarily deleted.
UPDATE 2: I swapped in a factory disk rear axle, which necessitated welding new perches on, so I used anti-wrap perches, making this idea MOOT.
