I feel sorry for some of you guys, I run a commodore borg warner diff, king springs leaves and even lowering blocks with a CA18 and although I'm not making big power (140kw) I have never had it tramp at all, no matter what I do.

feel sorry?? as you said you dont have big power, also tyres and wheels play a part.

I just meant that some people seem to be suffering from bad tramp with less power than what I have. It must be annoying. I'm not having a go at anyone.

hey jeff whats the size of your pad sitting on the spring...

going by what the hotrods and hemis link said, do the caltracs mount to the rear shackle or still the front like the others?
if it mounts to the front it would not put pressure on the leaf under load, it would actually take pressure off the leaf.. correct?

goes to front shackle
as torque is applied leaf twists up at the front down at back
caltrac applies pressure down on the leaf negating the twist
takes a few reads to get it
dazza

ahhh, just after reading your post it made sense...
thanks!

Do you mean the mount onto the leafs? Mine is pretty much the same as the standard datsun mount... Not quite as tall as the one pictured
