I think that's what it's called anyway. It's behind the axle and theres the 2 bars connecting the left side of the axle to the right fram and the right frame to the left frame. Now, I have the bottom one on, but I broke 2 bolts in the top one and the 3rd isn't holding. I need to get the thing to a shop thats about 15 miles from where the car is, but I dont have the cash for a trailer. Is it ok for me to drive without the upper brace on there for about 15 miles?? Thanks.

anyone know?

are you talking about the panhard bar and upper panhard brace? these cars do not have traction bars, traction bars are only used on cars with rear leaf springs.

I was told they were called both names, and trak bar is easier to say lol. So whatever panhard rod. yes, the brace is what Im talking about.

no...the panhard bar and a traction bar are two totally different things

You shouldn't have any problem if you drive easy and sensibly.

yeah, youll be fine with driving the car without the upper panhard bar brace....
Also, he never said traction bars he said track bar which is another name for the panhard bar, at least according to chilton and haynes.

do you believe everything you read...lol. you are correct though about that though, sorry about that. the first thing that came to my mind was traction bars.
