Oh, they are? I got a little confused by an ad on a previous page. That's a huge relief. I love the stickers but I'd feel a bit like a poser if they weren't the J-bolt bars.

Traffic Action wouldn't have the angle welded to the bottom for the J bolt bracket, would it?

Did a lot of guys buy the J-Bolt kit for the Traffic...Action bars back in the day?
I remember way more Lakewood bars with the slanted front than the perpendicular/straight front like the Traction...Action bars.

The skinnier bars were Traffic Action and called Traction Action if they had the triangular piece underneath for the j bolts.

Just got these back from my powder coater, they turned out awesome. Plus I figured this traction bar page needed some action (traction action)

Looks great, I just bought a pair of those same bars on ebay. Couldn't believe someone from here didn't scoop them up before I did. I hope mine look as good as yours when I get done cleaning them up.
