ECE Supertrac Bar Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

tcb-1 · 07-28-2009, 08:24 PM

has anyone mounted the axle bracket of the supertrac kit between the torsion bar and the axle shock mount INSTEAD of between the axle and torsion bar? seems I like I'd get a bit more travel with the bracket lower. looks like I'd only have to trim a 1/4" off the bracket.

just wondering...

Doug we installed it per ECE's instructions, so sorry I don't have any pertinent information for you. My best suggestion would be to call Stan/Mark and see what kind of information they might be able to provide.

Sorry I can't be more help...

You prob could do that but then the PHB would be farther away from parallel @ ride height which is where you want it.

^^ gotcha. I didn't realize that it should running parallel @ ride height. that solved that question!

The further from paralell it gets the more side-to-side travel you will have with the rear end.
