Cal Trac Question

Just wandered if anyone was having issues with the stock front leaf spring hangers. My Torino has them and the hangers look pretty weak .

No problems here on the torque boxes, stock spring perches won't hold up very well though.

That's what I was afraid of...Did u replace em? I spotted some heavy duty stuff at the local monster truck place..Thinkin about tryin some of their hangers.

backhalf it.

Probably should, but I see some hard runnin cars using the Cal Tracs...If i cant get it down the track ill cut it up a little.

I bought some of calvert's perches and no more problems. http://calvertracing.com/springperch.php

This thing has a currie rear housing,,the perches look ok..It's the front spring hanger I was worried about...A guy at the track said he hasnt had any trouble with his hangers...Thought i'd get more opinions....Your car looks like it leaves pretty hard so if ur not havin trouble ill quit worrying about it.

you got about 900 pounds on him though

Good point...Now im worried again.

and more torque

Ok now I wont sleep tonight.

I can fix it

Ill buy the parts ..u bring the mig and the pie!

The band's being rebuilt right now...I think I have some music u'll like...

TVRP, but my car is in chassis prison for a few more months, and it won't be back up and running till it is BBF powered. So unfortunatly it will be probably late this year / early next year at best. Unless you want me to break that motor of yours in for ya while Jon is turning your car into a promod.

That's ok he done broke it in on that fancy test stand of his...Who's doin ur chassis work?

Steve Hager... Well, how long till yours is ready to go then?

Hopefully next month....Heading into storm season and I'm in the roofing business.....Jon is my scout. If it gets busy i'll be too busy to work on it.

Sounds like your alot closer than me either way. lol.
