Default Re: Leaf springs & CalTracs separation

You will need a good pair of rear shocks too control the separation. I use Afco double adjustable shocks on the rear of my 67 Camaro which has Caltrac's bars and split mono leaf springs. I tried Competition Engineering 3 way adjustable shocks and QA1 double adjustable shocks. Neither one of these shocks are strong enough to slow down the body separation when using the Caltrac bars. My car 60ft 1.35-1.37 When I brought my car to Mark Markow for some suspension work, he is the one that recommended the Afco shocks. I had just bought a brand new pair of QA1's right before I brought the car to him. Even though they were brand new, he told me they wouldn't be strong enough to handle the pressure from the Caltrac bars. Car hooks hard now.
