Re: Building my own "caltrac" type bars Having worked with both and come up with a bit of a blend of parts that seem to work well First you'll want a gusset to support that square wall tube as it bend backward under load The mount plate for the leaf spring pad could use some additional stiffening The CE piece is 25" plate in a broad flat 'u' shape with stiffening plates on the side Second

Most of the guys we are adding extra holes on are Radials, high power ( over 1000 HP and some as high as 2000 HP) for a lot of leverage, and the Shocks are slowed way down on ext and comp Afco Big Guns revelaved some time twice to slow them down even more The travel stopping is whats un hooking the radials Less travel over a long period of time as they ramp Boost, Nitrous, timing in these

QandA for everything mechanicalRe: Making a MonoLeaf Suspension Hook But this is low buck no buck I did find plans for a slide a link caltrac style bar that some street rod guys are using What kind of experiences do you guys have with the shock tuning on the rear of a leaf spring car? I'm fairly good with the factory 4 link setups, just not leaf springs
