Tony,

With traction bar I assume you mean somthing like the Kafer Cup Brace ?
Typically these tie the shocktowers to the framehorns.
I believe there are braces that connect to the body, but in general the comments are that eventually the body wiil flex or even tear becuase of the load.

There is a tech article about the install of the brace on the site.

I've never seen a bar that ties to the bumper mounts, and I agree with you that that seems quite a distance to cover...plus the bar has to go straight back from the horns, which probably doesn't give a lot of support....

HTH

Rob.
