At 44 inches in length with a 14-inch center-to-center wheel spacing, the GMWB19 provides a wide, stable stance that keeps the rear of the car planted through the full length of a pass. The chrome upper bars and natural billet aluminum lower construction deliver a clean, competition-ready appearance while keeping weight down. Solid rubber wheels absorb impact without bouncing or deflecting under hard launches. The GMWB19 installs with standard hardware over the rear axle housing on a wide range of drag vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e44 inches overall length for maximum rear stability at speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e14-inch center-to-center wheel spacing for a wide, planted stance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual bar design with chrome upper bars and natural billet lower bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnsprung design for direct contact and positive rear wheel support\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid rubber wheels for reliable, consistent ground contact pass after pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBolt-on installation, no welding or custom fabrication required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUniversal fit for a wide range of drag race vehicles and rear axle configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComplete kit includes hardware for a straightforward installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGMWB19\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e802735040203\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGranatelli Motor Sports\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCenter to Center Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual, Unsprung\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBolt-On\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUpper Bar Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLower Bar Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural Billet Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid Rubber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUniversal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpecial Order\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2x Chrome upper wheelie bar tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2x Natural billet aluminum lower bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2x Solid rubber wheelie bar wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting hardware and installation instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat vehicles does the Granatelli GMWB19 wheelie bar kit fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GMWB19 is a universal bolt-on kit designed to fit a wide range of rear-wheel-drive drag race vehicles. It mounts to the rear axle housing using the included hardware and does not require welding or vehicle-specific brackets. Verify that your vehicle's rear axle housing geometry is compatible with the standard bolt-on mounting configuration before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between an unsprung and a sprung wheelie bar?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn unsprung wheelie bar makes direct, rigid contact with the ground when the front wheels lift. This provides immediate, positive stabilization and is well suited for bracket racing and street-strip vehicles where predictable behavior is the priority. A sprung design uses a spring mechanism to absorb the impact of the front end dropping, which is preferred for higher-horsepower applications where abrupt contact could upset chassis balance. The GMWB19 is unsprung and is best suited for vehicles in the mid-range power category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Granatelli GMWB19 require welding to install?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The GMWB19 is a bolt-on kit that attaches to the rear axle housing without welding, cutting, or custom fabrication. The included hardware and instructions support a straightforward installation with standard hand tools. This makes it a practical choice for racers who want to add wheelie bar protection without committing to permanent chassis modifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the overall dimensions of the GMWB19 wheelie bar kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GMWB19 measures 44 inches in total length with a 14-inch center-to-center wheel spacing. The 44-inch length provides enough extension behind the rear axle to catch the car at a safe angle during a wheelie, while the 14-inch width gives a stable two-point contact stance across the back of the vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre the wheelie bar wheels on the GMWB19 replaceable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The GMWB19 uses solid rubber wheels that are a standard wheelie bar wheel format. Replacement wheels are available through Granatelli Motor Sports and other drag racing suppliers. Inspect the wheels regularly for flat spots, cracking, or uneven wear and replace them as needed to maintain consistent contact and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan the GMWB19 be used at a sanctioned drag racing event?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWheelie bar requirements vary by sanctioning body and ET class. NHRA, IHRA, and local track rules each specify when wheelie bars are required or optional and may have minimum length requirements based on ET. Verify with your track or sanctioning body that the GMWB19 meets the applicable requirements for your vehicle class and elapsed time before using it in competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the finish on the Granatelli GMWB19 upper bars?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upper bars on the GMWB19 have a chrome finish. The lower bars are natural billet aluminum. The combination provides a polished, competition-grade appearance while keeping the overall weight of the kit low. The chrome finish requires standard chrome care to maintain its appearance if the bars are exposed to moisture or track debris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the GMWB19 a special order item?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the Granatelli GMWB19 is a special order item. Allow additional lead time beyond standard in-stock products when ordering. Contact Black Ops Auto Works before purchasing if you have a specific event or deadline, so lead time expectations can be confirmed at the time of order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaise the vehicle safely on jack stands and support the rear axle housing independently.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIdentify the mounting location on the rear axle housing per the included instructions.
