Traction bars
 

What is everyone running for leaf set up traction bars just wonder if the caltracs are worth 400 or if people have noticed any better product that are less money

Mine work good enough for a 1.671 60ft. And http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/o...43-2-1-1-1.jpg

Are those caltracs?

Re: Traction bars
 

I don't have any concrete numbers, but I can honestly say my caltracs work good. I think Smith Racecraft makes something for the leafsprung trucks, you'd have to ask since they aren't posted up on the site. I don't know the price either. Haulin It(Lorne) from the 73-87chevytrucks site made his own version of the caltracs and they turned out good and I don't think they cost him too much. But I think you'll be happy with the caltracs.

There's a lot worse ways to spend 400 bucks than Cal-Tracs

Re: Traction bars
 

Cal tracs are the bomb for a leaf ride.

Re: Traction bars
 

Yes they are. http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/o...trucks0125.jpg

Caltracs are the poor mans 4 link . I tore leaf spring pads off and twisted axle shafts . Caltracs work . The S-10 will get split monos , Caltracs , and double adjustable shocks

Re: Traction bars

cal-tracs Build them flipped and stock.

Re: Traction bars
 

Hey where are your shocks?

Re: Traction bars
 

I believe those shots were during the install.

Re: Traction bars
 

Quick question: Do Caltracs increase cornering traction issues on normal street driving?

Thanks-

Re: Traction bars
 

I think it depends on the vehicle,but yes on a 2 wheel dropped it does somewhat.

Re: Traction bars
 

I have a 73 stepside and looking to get a pair of caltracs part number 3900 I think, but the delima is that I have a 4/6 drop on the truck and a belltech 6850 flip kit in the rear and I bought a set of 8 leaf springs set so I can tuck under my weld draglites 15X10
5X5 bolt pattern and there is one set of bolt pattern on the rims. And I have 29 X 12.5 hoosier pro street tires. Has that slight staggerd look. Belltechs new street performance shocks. ride awesomes. I really want Hoosier 31 X 15.5. Trying to hook up in the rear, is my setup wrong for drag racing.
Thank you for your much needed support. Pics on the way
