so what would the concensus say the correct pinion angle for a caltrac setup should be... i think it was 5* nose down with ss springs.....
gut where have you lost all that weight at....

Calvert recomends not using caltracs with SS springs. here is the deal. you dont want your angles going positive. if your using just spings, 5-7* down is perfect. caltracs and ladders 2* down. i tried shims and i dont like them and wont use them. i would try it as is.
lost weight on front seats, rear window regulaters, and willwood brakes on the front and removal of emergency brake.
on the wish list is aluminum driveshaft with 1350 joints and centerlines on the back. that could get me to 3600 maybe

I run caltracs and the split mono's.... on my old 8 3/4 setup measuring off the shaft was 0* and i believe 2* up on the snubber pad.... I used a cut lowering block to fix that...
